QuestionAnswer
What are the growth requirements for Fungi concerning air/oxygen, nutrition, and pH requirements All fungi are aerobic, saprophytic, and like low pH
What is saprophytic. . . any organism that lives on dead organic matter, as certain fungi and bacteria
Morphology: Growth in filaments, what are the filaments called, singular v plural? plural v many? called hypha (one strand)- plural=hyphae. many hyphae = mycelium
nonseptae fungi: no division of cell walls
septate fungi: division of cell walls
reproduction of fungi fungi reproduce by spores (countless possibilities). such include, asexual, sexual types
Asexual reproduction of fungi Sporangiospore, conidiospore, chalamydospore, bastospore.
Sexual reproduction of fungi ascospore, basidiospore, zygospore.
Asexual reproduction: sporangiospore. spores inside the sac.
Asexual reproduction: conidiospores (organisms too) no sac, on the outside of bud..... common though mainly: penicillium and aspergillus form these
Asexual reproduction: chlamydospore form in the hypha
Asexual reproduction: blastospore cant tell the difference between budding and blastospore
Sexual reproduction: ascospore spur inside a sac that are caused by sexual hypha come togeather.
Haploid one set of chromosomes
diploid two sets of chromosomes
Meiosis creats from one pair of chromosomes four sets of haploid gamets
sexual reproduction: basidiospore four spores (four gametes) end of the hypha
sexual reproduction: zygospore two hypha come together. They form some sort of extention that comes together and forms a spur or a zygospore
Classification of Fungi: What are the four types of fungi? Ascomycetes, basidiomycetes, Zygomycetes, deuteromycetes
Classification of Fungi: Ascomycetes Are, asexual spores, usually a canidiospore but others are used. sexual spores are only ascospores EX> Saccharomyces (a yeast that produces ascospore)
Classification of Fungi: Basidiomycetes Asexual spores-many sexual spores-basidiospore EX>mushrooms, amanita (poisonous) and aguricus (edible)
Rust .... plant pathogens wheat rust and cedar-apple rust under basidiomycetes
Classification of Fungi: Zygomycetes Sexual spore: zygospore EX> Rhizopus (underlined) black bread mold and mazir?
Classification of Fungi: Deuteromycetes asexual - many sexual - none if sexual spore is discovered it is reclassified. medically important EX> Aspergillus-carnidiospores - (A. Flavus big carcinogen) EX>Penicillum- carnidiospos EX> canida - yeast (-infection?) Fungus balls: mold in lung
Viruses: Criteria for classification Type of nucleic acid - DNA or RNA Symmetry- 1 Helical (coil, basic) 2 cuboidal - (cube, pyramid, circle, polysided)3binal (head w/ a tail) Diameter of capsid & # capsomeres in cuboid existence of envelope around capsid
Capsid protein coat around DNA or RNA
Capsomere Sub-unit of capsid
Example of viruses: they are divided in what or by what? Animals including humans (organisms they effect), plant viruses, and bacterial viruses
Animal viruses:include what? poxvirus, myxovirus,herpes virus, picorna virus, tetro virus, pilo virus
Animal viruses: poxvirus brick shaped viruses NOt CHicken pox EX> Small pox
Animal viruses: Myxovirus spherical viruses Influenza (vaccination) Measles (vaccination) Rabies Neurotropid- nerve cells, foaming at mouth, cant swallow
Animal viruses: Herpes virus (lots) Spherical, contains DNA EX>Herpes simplex - cold sores EX>Herpes Zoster - Chicken pox - shingles EX>Epstein-barr viirus can cause Burkitt's lymphome (bad cancer in africa)and or mono
Animal viruses:Herpes virus: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) Mono, and Burkitt's lymphome = terrible cancer
Animal viruses:Picorna virus has RNA: spherical EX> polio- pres roosevelt EX> rhino virus - common cold (nose)
Animal viruses: retro virus Central dogma of biology - DNA-RNA- Protein (regular). virus causes RNA-DNA-RNA-Protein ASE enzyme ending causes an extra step. FeLV- Feline leukemia Virus HIV- Human immunodeficiency virus
Plant Viruses (1) and describe it. Tobacco mosaic virus. Helical structure. Core RNA. Infects tomato and tobacco (spots on the leaves)
Bacterial viruses: go through the cycle ending with lyses Normal cell cycle, infection, absorption, injection, latent period, eclipse period, rise period, lysis and it thus continues.
Bacterial viruses: go through cycle including lysogenic cycle Normal cell cycle, infection, absorbion, injection, Lysogenic cycle significant because virus becomes prophage(for who knows how long), induction (virus DNA becomes virulent), latent period, eclipse period, rise period, lysis.... infection.
How long does each period last in the cycle? Latent period-30 min eclipse period-20 min rise period-10 min
bacterial viruses: structure Has a head, and tail. head contains, DNA and protein coat Tail contains, tailcore, tail sheeth, and tail fibers. (tail fibers grab on to host and cause the step in the cycle, absorption)
Lysis bacteria blows up, releasing up to 100 bacteria at a time
induction is caused by what? uv light or enviornmental stress
Control of microorganisms. Doesnt necessarely mean kill, but find a way to control killing due to protein denaturing
humans and animals dont have lysis, they have... budding. virus comes down, infects cell, lots of viruses are then created, viruses escape and dont kill cell. Cell repairs itself after all viruses are gone.
Control of microorganisms: physical ways would be heat, Low temperature, drying, radiation, osmotic pressure
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: types of... Moist heat, autoclaving, fractional sterilization, pasteurization, dry heat
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: Moist heat THe presence of water aiids in heat transfer.
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: Autoclaving 121 degrees C for 15 min - poiling point of water is 121 degrees C @ 15lbs/in^2. The thermol death point (TDP) of spors of Clostridium botulium is 121
THermal death point TDP temperature @ which all organisms will be killed in 10 min
THermal death time TDT Time required to kill all at specific temperature
Decimal reduction time time required to kill 90% of cells @ a given temperature. Time resulting in 10% survival
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: Fractional Sterilization day 1:100 degrees C for 30 min. kills vegetative cells, doesnn't kill spores Day 2: 100 degrees C for 30 min - Kills rest of vegetative cells and most of spores
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: Pasteurization 62.8 degrees C for 30 min- Kills microbacterium tuberculerusis.
Control of microorganisms: physical: HEAT: Dry Heat Over or at 160 degrees C for 1 hr (only for dry items)
Control of microorganisms: physical: Radiation, types of Ultraviolet and Ionizing radiation
Control of microorganisms: physical: Radiation: Ultraviolet Damages DNA, Causes Thylamine to dimers (two thylamines "fuse" together). Causes misreading of code, a mutation or growth. UV light doesn't penetrate very far, goes through air but not glass
Control of microorganisms: physical: Osmotic pressure (1) Salt is a preservative so it drys out the cell
Disinfectant This kills cells of pathogens
germocide this is same as disinfectant
Antiseptic this stops growth of cells, not death. Such as mouth wash
Phenol coefficient phenol will kill just about everything. Thus comparing a disinfectant will give a good judge. P.C. = (Dilution of TEst)/(Dilution of phenol).... Killing time must be between 5-10 min. PC > 1 test is better. PC < 1 phenol is better
phenol coefficient equation (Dilution of test)/(dilution of phenol)
Control of microorganisms: Chemical, examples of Alcohols, halogens, heavy metals, detergents,
Control of microorganisms: Chemical:Alcohols dehydrate precipitate proteins
Control of microorganisms: Chemical:halogens oxidize proteins. Cl oxidizes anything Sodium hypochlorate - clorox
Control of microorganisms: Chemical: Heavy Metals Pb, Ag, Au, Hg, } all attach to -SA gropu of protien and mess up structure of protein,
Control of microorganisms: Chemical:detergents (soap) what are the two types anionic and cationic types of this controle
Control of microorganisms: Chemical: Detergents (soap): Anionic creates a carbon chain that has a nonpolar end and a polar end, when water goes down the drain it pulls the plolar end down which is attached to the non polar end connected in the dirt or cell. is a surface active agent, no surface tension.
Control of microorganisms: Chemical: Detergents (soap): Cationic more effective in causing leaky cells examples of???????
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: define A chemical produced by a microorganism, which, in dilute solutions, kills other microorganisms.
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: EX> X3 penicillin, streptomycin, tetracycline, chloramphenical
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: EX> Penicillin Penicillin - Penicillium notaturs - canidiospores, deuteromycetes -inhibits petidoglycon synthesis -kills G+
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: EX> streptomycets 2. streptomycin (origin fungi) -acid fast, combines with mRNA to cause misreading of DNA code makes it illegible
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: EX> tetracycline streptomycets species prevents mRNA from binding to ribosome
Control of microorganisms: Antibiotics: EX> Chloramphenical streptomyces species that bindes to ribosomes
streptomycets many antibiotics found in streptomycenes, interfere with DNA>RNA>protein
Criteria for selecting a new antibiotic. X4 1 broad spectrome - kills many types of bacteria 2 minimum toxicity to humans 3 cost 4 ease of transport through the body
infectious disease disease caused by a microorganism
endemic disease occurs constantly (common cold)
Epademic disease has higher than normal rate of occurance, causes concern
Pandemic disease covers a large geographical area
virulence the microorganisms ability to infect
Disease transformation: Methods of transmition, examples of. enters through any opening in your body, -food -air -water -insects -direct contact -formites (inanimate object)
Disease transformation:Toxins, types of endotoxins and exotoxins
Disease transformation: exoToxins: endotoxins, definition and types of proteinwhich diffuses away from bacerial cell in order to infect by difusing into your body, usually from G+ Botalin, enerotoxin, nemolysins, cytotoxins

Disease transformation: exoToxins: Cytotoxins kills several types of cells. Crynbacerium diphtherne- throat, blood heart
Disease transformation: endotoxins: E. coli Met-Thr+ E. coli Met+ Thr-. Remains in bacterial cell, released when the cell dies, mostly G-
Immunology - types of Natural resistance, white blood cells, interferan, complement, acquired immunity,
Immunology: Natural resistance age, race, gender, nutrition
Immunology: White Blood Cells Ingest invading bacteria
Immunology: Interference stops virus action- protein in blood innterferes
Immunology: Complement amixture of 11 or 20 proteins. causes lysis of cells
Immunology: acquired immunity: types of Antigen, antibody, active immunity, passive immunity
Immunology: acquired immunity: antigen any substance when introduced to the body causes the body to produce antibodies
Immunology: acquired immunity:antibody a protein, produced in responce to an antigen
Immunology: acquired immunity: active immunity (X2) active immunity- introduction of antigen- you make antibody. either natural- have had the disease, know antibody or artificial - injection of antigen
Immunology: acquired immunity:passive immunity injection of antibodies
