Prokaryotes reproduce by this method
What is binary fission?
100
These are the two domains which prokaryotes belong to.
What are archaea and bacteria?
100
This structure is lacking from all prokaryotes.
What is a nucleus? (also acceptable- membrane bound organelles)
200
In order to reproduce, all viruses require this.
What is a host cell?
200
These are two important roles of bacteria.
Acceptable responses include: helping animals digest food, recycling nutrients and fixing nitrogen
200
These are three common shapes of bacteria.
What is cocci, bacilli (rod—ok), and spirilla?
300
These are the two viral reproductive cycles.
What is lytic and lysogenic cycle?
300
Bacteria are often called mesophiles, which means they like this kind of environment.
What is moderate temperature, moderate salinity, moderate pH (moderate environment—ok)?
300
This treatment can inhibit bacterial growth, but has no effect on viruses.
What are antibiotics?
300
This structure is formed to survive when a bacteria experiences severe environmental stress.
What is an endospore?
300
This is the conclusion of the lytic cycle and virus particle are released.
What is the cell bursts, dispersing viruses?
400
These are three methods with which bacteria can exchange genetic information.
What is conjugation, transduction and transformation?
400
Archaea can be extremophiles, where is one location you might find an archaea species?
Answers will vary (Yellow stone, Great Salt Lake, Acidic/High salinity/High & Low Temperatures)
500
Food poisoning is caused because bacteria do this.
What is release endotoxins?
500
This structure enables genetic material transfer between two bacteria.
What is pili?
