Does the book say that viruses are living or non-living and why?
Non-Living! They do not meet most of the characteristics of living things.
100
Name 3 places in which bacteria exist.
Kitchen sponge, yogurt, everywhere
100
These are the 3 shapes of bacteria.
Spiral, Spherical, Rod-like
100
Why are protists the "odds and ends" kingdom?
They don't really fit in any of the other categories!
100
Name the 3 categories of protists
Animal-like, Plant-like, Fungus-Like
200
Describe the best treatment for viruses.
Rest, Fluids, boosting the immune system. Vaccines = prevention.
200
Are bacteria autotrophic or heterotrophic?
Trick Question: BOTH! They can be either depending on the bacteria.
200
Are bacteria prokaryotes or eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes!
200
What characteristics do all protists share?
eukaryotic, like moisture
200
Name the 3 kinds of algae
red, brown, green
300
These are the 2 parts of virus structure.
1. Protein shell 2. Genetic Material
300
This is the main organelle that bacteria do have.
RIBOSOMES.
300
This is the structure that bacteria most often use in order to move.
Flagellum. Cilia to a lesser extent.
300
Describe how psuedopods move.
Use cytoplasm to ooze around.
300
Give an example of a multicellular protist
Giant Kelp, lots of algaes
400
Describe the 2 kinds of viruses and how they reproduce differently.
Active- Take over cell immediately and cell produces viruses until it bursts Hidden- incorporates virus DNA into cell DNA, Cell replicates including virus DNA, starts producing viruses when triggered
400
Describe conjunction and binary fission and how they are different.
Binary Fission- asexual reproduction, 1 cell divides into 2 identical cells Conjunction- sexual reproduction, Bridge joins 2 different cells and they pass genetic material between them, starts with 2 cells and ends with 2 different cells
400
Describe the role of the endospore.
Protects bacteria until conditions are favorable to live and reproduce.
400
Give an example of a plant-like protist.
diatoms, dinoflagellates, Euglenoids, Algae
400
Name the 3 categories of protist and the key features of each (prokaryotic or eukaryotic, autotrophic or heterotrophic, single or multicellular)
Animal-Like: eukaryotic, heterotrophic, single-cellular Plant-Like: Eukaryotic, Autotrophic, single or multi cellular Fungus-Like: Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, single or multicellular
500
This is why specific viruses can only be caught in specific a place, such as the nose or throat.
Viruses attach using their protein shells. The proteins only attach to specific other proteins, which may only be found in specific types of cells.
500
This is the man who first discovered bacteria by examining teeth.
Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
500
Describe 2 major roles of bacteria in the environment and the world.
Decomposers- recycle organic matter Oxygen producers- created oxygen for the early atmosphere Cleanup- Used to clean up waste like oil spills Food products- cheese, yogurt, vinegar
500
Give an example of a protist that can be both autotrophic and heterotrophic.
Euglenoids! Remember the eyespot.
500
Why are slime molds often found on forest floors?
They feed on decaying matter and there is lots on forest floors.
