Bacterial Business
This component of the bacterial cell wall is never found in other types of organisms
Peptidoglycan
This is the protein part of a virus.
Caspid
In fungi, this filamentous structure grows and branches to form the mycelium.
hypha
This type of reaction converts ATP to ADP through a process called hydrolysis.
What is catabolic?
The movement of bacteria in response to chemical signals.
Chemotaxis
This is the type of nucleic acid found in a viral genome.
DNA or RNA (but never both)
Fungal _____________ are important for this biological process, allowing fungi to spread and survive in harsh conditions.
Spores
In anaerobic respiration, where does oxidative phosphorylation occur?
What is the cell membrane?
This Gram negative feature qualifies as an endotoxin

Spike protein
Cilia are structures for motility found primarily in _________.
Protozoa
Once a certain concentration of product is reached, this type of molecule will slow down an enzyme's activity through non-competitive inhibition.
What is a regulatory molecule?
This structure found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes differs in size (measured Svedberg units).
Ribosome
Retroviruses use reverse transcriptase to make this.
DNA copy of an RNA genome
This stage of a helminth’s life cycle is often microscopic and infective to humans or animals, allowing transmission between hosts.
larval stage (or infective larva)
These two nucleotides form 3 hydrogen bonds DNA's double helix.
What is Guanine and Cytosine?
Lysozyme is most effective against _________.
Gram-positive organisms
This happens when bacteria acquire a new trait from temperate phage.
Lysogenic conversion
The motile, feeding stage of protozoa is called the _________blank.
Trophozoite
If cells are placed in a solution with a high concentration of sugar, water leaves the cell causing the cells to shrink. This process is known as ________.
What is crenation?
