Microorganisms
Microorganisms that cause infectious diseases
What are pathogens?
All bacteria belong to this kingdom
What is unicellular?
An organism that is part of the Protoctista kingdom
What is algae?/What is protozoa?
The substance that creates the cell wall of fungi
What is chitin?
A type of food that comes from the fermentation of various types of milk. It is often used in pizza
What is cheese?
A tool used to see microorganisms
What is a microscope?
The way that bacteria asexually reproduce
What is binary fission?
The method that the protoctista kingdom gains nutrition
What is a heterotrophic organism?
A unicellular group of the fungi group that obtains energy from their nutrients in a process called fermentation
What is yeast?
Bacteria, fungi, and algae are essential in the development of this, as well as cosmetics
What are pharmaceutical drugs?
This is something that is not in the five kingdoms. It is microscopic and made up of a shell and proteins that contain nucleic acid. The flu is a common string of this.
What is a virus?
A rigid structure around the cell that isolates and protexts the bacterium
What is the Bacteria Cell Wall?
The types of cells that protozoa have
What are eurkaryotic cells?
An asexual process where a part of a mother cell starts to protrude and separates from the parent to creaete a new yeast cell
What is budding?
Decomposers do this action by transforming waste organic material into mineral substances
What is recycling matter?
A process in which bacteria and fungi break down materials
What is decomposition?
A resistant, non-reproductive structure formed by some bacteria to survive in unfavorable conditions (ex: high heat or freezing temperatures)
What are endospores?
What is a colony?
The substance that is released by multicellular fungi during reproduction
What are spores?
A type of organic material that is used in the process of recycling matter. It usually comes from living organisms and is composed of water and solid materials
What is faeces?
An illness caused by a fungi that grow on a person's foot. It is often associated with athletic people
What is athlete's foot?
An infectious disease caused by bacteria that affects the lungs
What is tuberculosis?
Protozoa that don't move independently
What are Sporozoan organisms?
The nutrition that is formed when two or more organisms rely on each other for nutrition. An example of this is when lichens are created between fungi and algae
What is Symbiotic nutrition?
Microorganisms create a large number of this element; especially in aquatic ecosystems
What is oxygen?
