| Question | Answer |
| Mycobacterium | Some bacterial groups lack typical cell wall structure – Gram-positive cell wall structure with lipid mycolic acid (cord factor) • Pathogenicity and high degree of resistance to certain chemicals and dyes • Basis for acid-fast stain |
| Mycoplasma | bacteria with no cell wall – Membrane is stabilized by sterols (absorbed from the media-limiting factor) – Pleomorphic |
| fluid mosaic model | Phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins – |
| fluid mosaic model uses | Site for energy reactions, nutrient processing, and synthesis – Passage of nutrients into the cell and discharge of wastes – Selectively permeable |
| CYTOPLASM | – Dense gelatinous solution of sugars, amino acids, and salts – 70-80% water • Serves as solvent for materials used in all cell functions |
| NUCLEOID REGION chromosome | – Single, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule that contains all the genetic information required by a cell |
| NUCLEOID REGION Plasmids | – Free small circular, doublestranded DNA – Not essential to bacterial growth and metabolism – Used in genetic engineering – Readily manipulated and transferred from cell to cell |
| PROKARYOTIC RIBOSOMES |
