Structures 1
Order of "Nature's Assembly Line" (Know details)
Nucleus > ER > Golgi
This organelle makes energy
Mitochondria
These hyphae are separated by "walls" and appear like squares under the scope.
Septate
This mycelium grows under ground.
Vegetative
Is Malaria caused by a protozoa?
Yes, Plasmodium protozoan
Rough ER makes ribosomes. Smooth ER makes?
Lipids needed to later modify the proteins.
Transitional Vesicles
Move proteins from ER to Golgi
Mycology
Study of Fungi
Wild Card, How much will you bet?
From Tools of the Lab.
Give me an example of a selective media. (Think about microbial nutrition vocab terms)
What is the purpose of the Protozoan Cyst Stage?
Protective capsule
Most prominent organelle?
Nucleus
This molecule gives the cytoplasmic membrane rigidity (since most eukaryotes don't have a cell wall).
Sterols, Like Cholesterol
All fungi get their carbon from other organisms, like dead trees. This makes fungi a ___________.
Chemoheterotroph
A healthy gardener cuts their hand and fungal spores get under their skin leading to inflammation. What mycoses is this?
Subcutaneous
Trophozoite Stage
Adult, motile/mobile feeding stage
Motility structure unique to eukaryotes.
Cilia
Fungal cell wall is made up of?
Chitin
Yeast can live with or without Oxygen, this makes them __________________?
Facultative Anaerobes
Sporangiospores
Bags or Sac-like heads that surround fungal spores
This protozoan causes diarrhea and vomiting.
Giardia lamblia
Look like smiling little sting rays.
How are vacuoles and lysosomes different?
Only lysosomes have digestive enzymes.
Vacuoles are "bubbles" or bags that hold foreign material only.
Where are the ribosomes? (3 possible answers)
1. On RER
2. In Mitochondria
3. Free in Cytoplasm
What does 'Dimorphism' mean?
Fungi can have 2 stages of growth.
1 Stage: single celled yeast
2 Stage: branches of connected cells (hyphae)
What type of mycoses is Athlete's foot?
Opportunistic
Is E. coli a protozoan?
NO. No no no no.
E. coli can cause GI distress like many protozoans do BUT it is a prokaryotic bacteria.
