The two types of cells
Eukaryote and Prokaryote
Macromolecules cells are composed of
Proteins, Nucleic acids, Carbohydrates, lipids..
Microbes that do not need oxygen for optimal growth and are catalase positive
Aerotolerant aerobe
Microbes that grow well in high salt
Halophiles
Acellular, infectious, DNA or RNA genomes, surrounded by protein capsid, require host cell to reproduce
One thing all cells have in common
Plasma Membrane, Genetic information, Cytosol, Ribosomes
The macroelements are
CHONPS, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur
Microbes that do need oxygen for growth
obligate anaerobes
Gram Positive
Types of Capsids
Helical, Icosahedral, Complex Epcot
Bacteria that lack an outer membrane but have a thick layer of peptidoglycan
Gram-Positive bacteria
DNA molecule divides and forms two DNA molecules
Binary fission
Microbe that require 02 for metabolism
Obligate Aerobes
the monomer for carbohydrates
glucose or simple sugars (monosaccharides)
The virus attaches to its host cell by specific binding of its spikes to cell receptors
Adsorption
Cells need energy for..
Transport, Enzyme activity, Assembly of Carbohydrates, Protein processing, Chemical reactions, Movement, Synthesis of Lipids, Translation, Transcription, DNA replication... EVERYTHING
Generation time of 20 mins for 2 hours starting with 5 cells
320
Acidophiles
Central Dogma
DNA>RNA>protein, transcription and translation is in the middle
The virus is made up of
Capsids, Capsomere(subunit of capsids and is made up of proteins)
Ways to classify bacteria
Shapes, How they arrange themselevs
4 Phases of microbial growth
Lag Phase>Log Phase>Stationary Phase> Decline Phase
Microorganisms that grow well in higher PH levels
Alkaliphiles
catalyze chemical reactions
enzymes
