Bacteria
Archaea
What part of a virus has a protein coat
Capsid
Most bacteria will reproduce asexually; this is by what method?
Binary Fission
Anything that can cause disease is considered a what
pathogen
How would you describe bacteria in the shapes of sphere, spiral, and rods? (in that order...)
Coccus, Spirillum, and Bacillus
Bacteria can use viruses to exchange genetic material. Many times this comes in the form of using a bacteriophage. This process of genetic transfer from one bacteria to another through a virus is called what
Transduction
A patient came into the ER looking for help for her stomach bug. She received medicine and seemed better, but days later she came by with a sore throat. What kind of pathogen is this
Opportunistic Pathogen
What kind of bacteria will catch stains like methylene blue
Gram positive
Viruses tend to make people pretty sick. What cycle might explain this
Lytic cycle
Bacteria can be stingy at times. They often will pick up strands of DNA floating in the world. What is this method of genetic transfer called
Transformation
A common medical condition is Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. A lot of times these bacteria are found in moist environments. They appear to be blue ish green at times. What kind of bacteria is this? What quality do these bacteria possess?
This is a Cyanobacteria
(autotrophic)
Some viruses can lay dormant, this is likely due to what cycle
Bacteria are organisms too. They survive and advance just like others. The organisms will share DNA that is helpful to others to survive. They share by way of a pilus. What is this method of genetic transfer called?
Conjugation
HIV
Herpes
Varicella
what are the three virulence factors you learned about
Capsule
Nucleoid
Flagellum
You recently picked up immunology in the summer. In your studies you learned about a virus that destroys T cell in the body. This virus has a special enzyme that lets the virus replicate in a different way than normal. What is this enzyme
Reverse Transcriptase
While bacteria love to help each other out, its not always beneficial for both parties. How many trades of genetic information will there be in conjugation?
one
(DNA is only exchanged in one direction, and not swapped)
Your sibling got the flu. He says that it hurt really bad and that he might not be able to go through that again. Months later he got it again, yet he said he feels like its not as bad. What protein might be responsible for him feeling better?
Interferon
