cell wall
bacterial cell walls made of this
peptidoglycan
Methods that prokaryotes use to evolve

Rod
Bacilli
disease causing agents
Pathogen
Dye retainer
A hollow bridge between two bacterial cells
pili
kingdoms are prokaryotes currently found in
Eubacteria and Archaebacteria
Pair
Diplo

bacteria=everywhere
archaea=extreme environments
