Pilus
Cell wall
G+ v. G-
G+ v. G-
Cytoplasmic Membranes
100
The substance that composes the cell wall
What is peptidoglycan
100
Stains purple
What is G pos
100
High resistance to physical disruption,drying, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, and tetracycline.
What is Gram Pos bacteria
100
Communication and transport
What is the purpose of protein in the phospholipid bilayer
200
Longer than fimbriae, hairlike filaments
What is the physical structure of pilus
200
Provides structure and shape prevents osmotic lysis Assist some cells in attaching to other cells or in resisting antimicrobial drugs
What is the function of cell walls
200
Thin inner pepticoglycan layer with thick outer lipopolysaccharide layer.
What is G neg
200
Selective permeability allows passage of some molecules Contain enzymes for ATP production.
What are the functions of the plasma membrane
300
Allows for the transfer of genetic information from one cell to another. allows for transfer of resistance plasmids.
What is the function of pilus
300
Consists of a waxy cell wall
What is an acid fast bacteria
300
Resides within the thick outer layer of peptidoglycan of a Gram pos protein.
What is techoic acid
300
Is not inhibited by basic dyes (continues to grow in presence)
What is Gram neg bacteria
300
Phospholipid bilayer that lacks the carbs and sterols found in eukaryotic plasma membranes
What is the structure of plasma membranes
400
Small circular pieces of DNA that are separate from the main bacterial chromosome.
What is a plasmid
400
Highly resistant to antibiotics, drying out, chemical/physical disruption. Won't Gram Stain accurately. Need to be in vegetative state to be effective. Ex. Mycobacterium tuberculosis
What is an acid fast bacteria
400
Size selective pores present in the thick lipopolysaccahride layer of a Gram neg protein
What are porins
400
High resistance to lysosomes, penicillin, and sulfa
What is Gram neg bacteria
400
Encloses the cytoplasm
What is the function of the cytoplasmic membrane
500
If present there are only one to a few
What is how many pilus on a cell
500
Cannot Gram Stain. Ex. Mycoplasma pneumonia
What is bacteria without cell walls
500
Produces only exotoxins as bacteria grows
What is Gram pos
500
Produces both endotoxins (released when cell dies) and exotoxins
What is a Gram neg bacteria
500
Damage to the membrane by these cause leakage of cell contents
What is alcohols, quaternary ammonium, or polymyxin antibiotics
