Viral structure
The genetic material of a virus
DNA or RNA
Name one of the two ways viruses can exit cells
Budding or lysis
How prokaryotes reproduce
Enzymes are which type of macromolecule
Proteins
The energy currency of the cell
ATP
The protein coat along with the genetic material of the virus form this structure
Nucleocapsid
Where DNA viruses usually replicate within the eukaryotic host cell
The nucleus
A microbe that thrives at a pH of 3 would be classified as this
An acidophile
If an enzyme is exposed to a different pH or a higher temperature than is optimal, this can occur
Denaturation
The nutrient most cells prefer to feed into their cellular respiration pathways
Glucose
Determines the specificity of a virus
Viral spikes
Some viral genomes can incorporate into the host's chromosome - this is the result
A latent infection
A microbe that thrives in the presence of oxygen, but can also grow under anoxic conditions is classified as this
Facultative anaerobe
Enzymes often require these "helper" molecules that bind to them and make them functional
Cofactors
The terminal electron acceptor during aerobic respiration
Oxygen
The host cell's membrane
The part of an animal virus that enters the host cell
A dormant, relatively resistant survival structure formed by most, if not all bacteria
Persister cell
The part of an enzyme where the substrate binds
Name the three steps of cellular respiration in the order they typically occur
Glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, Electron transport chain
The name for a virus that infects bacteria
bacteriophage
The steps of viral replication
hint: there are 5
Attachment, entry, biosynthesis, assembly, release
Endospores
Lowering the activation energy
The molecule that generates ATP using energy from the proton motive force
ATP synthase
