Label A
Pili
These tiny structures make proteins for the cell.
ribosomes
True or False? Bacteria are prokaryotes.
true
True or False, Not all bacteria are harmful.
true
Which shape is "Spiral"?
Spirillum
Label B
Flagellum
This structure stores extra DNA in small circular form, sometimes carrying resistance genes.
plasmids
One way bacterial cells are different from plant cells.
No cell wall, no chloroplasts
What type of medicine is used to kill or slow bacteria?
antibiotics
Which shape is circular?
Coccus
Label C
nucleoid
The place inside a bacterial cell where the DNA can be found
Nucleoid
Unlike animal cells, bacteria do not have this membrane-bound “control center.”
nucleus
Can vaccines be used to kill off bacteria?
no
Which arrangement is in a "group or cluster"?
Staphylo
Label G
peptidoglycan/cell wall
This long tail helps bacteria move in liquids.
flaggelum
One similarity between bacteria and eukaryotic cells.
Both have DNA, ribosomes, and a cell membrane.
Overuse of antibiotics can cause this problem.
antibiotic resistance, mutations
Which arrangement is in a line or "strip"
Strepto
Label H
slime layer/capsule
Without this inner boundary layer, bacteria would not be able to control materials entering and leaving.
plasma membrane
Which is bigger on average, a bacterial cell or a human body cell?
human body cell.
What part of the body has the largest community of helpful bacteria?
the gut, intestines
Which Shape is "Pill" or Rod" shaped?
Bacillus
