100

This type of virus infects bacteria.

What is a bacteriophage?

100
Corkscrew shaped prokaryotes are given this name.

What is spirillum?

100

This is the carbon source of autotrophs.

What is atmospheric CO2?

100

The "mouth" of some protists that trap food and form a vacuole is known as this.

What is a gullet/oral groove?

100

Example of prion caused disease?

Mad-cow/Cruzfled-Jakob

200

Capsids are made of this protein.

What are capsomeres?

200
Bacterial cell walls are made of this polymer.

What is peptidoglycan?

200

This is the carbon source of heterotrophs.

What is chemical compounds (organic & inorganic matter)?

200

Ameboid motion occurs via a projection of this structure.

What is a pseudopod?

200

Three differences between prokaryotes and protists.

1. cilia vs pili

2. nucleus vs. no nucleus (eukaryotic vs prokaryotic)

3. protists can be multicellular

4. some protists lack a cell wall and therefore also lack peptidoglycan; those that do have a cell wall contain cellulose

5. binary fission vs mitosis

300

In this viral cycle the virus is killing the host cell.

What is the lytic cycle?

300
When bacterial cells are arranged in clusters, they are given this prefix.

What is staphylo-?

300

Archaea can reproduce via these two methods.

What is binary fission and conjugation?

300

Protists gave rise to these three kingdoms.

What are plants, animals, and fungi?

300

Three types of protists & their means of locomotion.

Euglena - flagellum

Ameoba - psudeopod

Paramecium - cilia

400

HIV is this type of virus.

What is a retrovirus?

400

This type of bacterium are very resistant to antibiotics.

What are gram-negative bacteria?

400
This circular molecule of RNA causes disease in plants.

What is a viroid?

400

Protists can reproduce using these two methods.

What is mitosis and conjugation?

400

Four different types of viruses based-off their nucleic acid make-up.
