Microbio - Chap 7
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| prokaryotic cell shape determined by | cell wall |
| Treponema pallidum | spirochete |
| 4 stages of Treponema pallidum | Primary, secondary, latent, tertiary |
| primary stage of Treponema pallidum | chancre |
| secondary of Treponema pallidum | rash |
| latent of Treponema pallidum | 1-20 years asyptomatic |
| tertiary of Treponema pallidum | lesions on organs/bones |
| TORCH | toxoplasmosis, other (syphillus hepB, HIV, chlamydia), rubella, cytomegalo cirus, herpes simplex |
| Treponema vincentii | spirochetes |
| Borrelia burgdorferi | spirochetes |
| Borrelia burgdorferi does what regarding other diseases? | MIMICS THEM |
| does Borrelia burgdorferi disseminate throughout the body? | YES |
| photosynthetic pigments on plasma membrane are called (2) | chromatophores, thylakoids |
| osmotic pressure | the pressure needed to stop the movement of water across the membrane |
| aquaporins | water channels |
| hypertonic | lyse |
| hypotonic | crenation |
| plasmid carries what kind of genes? | nonessential |
| prok have 70s ribosomes? | YES |
| metachromatic/volutin inclusions | phosphate reserves |
| polysaccharide inclusions | energy reserves |
| lipid inclusions | energy reserves |
| sulfur inclusions | energy reserves |
| carboxysome inclusions | used for CO2 fixation |
| gas inclusions | protein-covered cylinders |
| endospore | dormant state of vegetative bacterial cell |
| what 2 gram POSITIVE rod cells form endospores? | Bacillus, Clostridium |
| Is Bacillus aerobic? where is spore? | YES, middle |
| Is Clostridium anaerobic? where is spore? | YES, polar |
| sporulation | endospore formation |
| germination | return to vegetative state |
| steps of forming endospore? (6) | spore "septum" forms, plasma membrane surrounds newly replicated DNA, septum surrounds isolated portion, peptidoglycan forms on isolated portion, spore coat forms on peptidoglycan, endospore is freed |
| endotoxin (lipid A) of gram NEGATIVE is released when? | when cell dies |
| EXOtoxin (3 types) | cytotoxin, neurotoxin, enterotoxin (cell, nerve, GI tract) |
| Bacillus anthracis | endospore |
| does Bacillus anthracis have a capsule? | YES |
| 3 types of anthrax? | cutaneous, pulmonary, GI |
| Bacillus cereus | endospore |
| Clostridium tetani | endospore |
| Clostridium botulinum | endospore |
| botox is? | botulinum toxin |
| Clostridium perfringens | endospore |
| Clostridium difficile | endospore |
