Hodge Podge
100
A strand of nucleic acids encased in a protein coat, considered to be non-living, that can infect living cells and replicate inside them.
What is a virus?
100
Bacteria are the only group characterized as this.
What is a prokarote?
100
Bacteria reproduce through this process.
What is binary fission.
100
Penicillin, tetracylcine and streptomycin are all examples of this.
What are antibiotics?
100
Bacteria that cause botulism may survive for a long time because they form these.
What is an endospore?
200
These are most beneficial at fighting viral diseases.
What are vaccinations
200
Bacterial cells have both of these structures surrounding them.
What is a cell wall and cell membrane?
200
The process where genetic material is transferred from one bacteria to another through contact.
What is conjugation?
200
This is the way scientists know what antibiotic to use against a particular bacteria.
What is a gram stain?
200
Rod shaped bacteria
What is bacillus?
300
This is the cycle of viral infection, replication and cell destruction.
What is the lytic cycle.
300
These organells are found in both prokaryote or eukaryotic cells.
What are ribosomes?
300
Bacteria will form one of these to avoid harsh conditions.
What is an endospore?
300
Gram positive bacteria have a thick layer of this carbohydrate - protein substance.
What is peptidoglycan?
300
Round bacteria
What is coccus?
400
Infectious protein particles that infect the nervous system and result in diseases such as mad cow and scrapie.
What is a prion disease.
400
Prokaryotic cells lack one of these.
What is a nucleus?
400
Bacteria that can make their own food.
What is an autotroph?
400
This is when antibiotics become ineffective against fighting a bacterial infection.
What is antibiotic resistance?
400
strepto
What is chains?
500
Viruses that remain dormant for a while before replicating and damaging the host cell replicate through this cycle.
What is the lysogenic cycle?
500
photosynthetic bacteria : sunlight as chemoautotrophs are to this.
What are inorganic molecules (chemicals)?
500
Bacteria that obtain energy through parasitism or decomposing organic matter.
What is a heterotroph?
500
Gram negative bacteria are more difficult to kill with antibiotics because they have this.
