Biology 112 Prokaryote - Archae and Bacteria

Terms

undefined, object
copy deck
extreme holaphiles
live in highly saline envrionment
introns
present in archaea and eukarya; rare in bacteria
nuclear envelope
present in eukarya
histones
present in arch and euka no in bacteria
methagens
unique way to obtain energy; produce methane from carbon dioxide and hydrogen ; live in swam and marshes
bacterial cell structures
nucleoid, fimbria, plasmid, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall, flagella, capsule, cytoplasm
plasma membrane
for prokaryotes location of resperation. photosynthesis; detection of chemotaxis
components of prokaryotic cell
plasma membrane, gas vacoule, ribosomes, inclusion bodies, nucleoid, periplasmic space, cell wall, capsule and slime layers, fimbriae and pili, flagella, edospore
endospores
are DNA and a portion of cytoplasm(ribosomes) encased in a tough cell wall; resistant to extreme in temp, drying, and harsh chemicals; comoponent of a prokaryotic cell
inclusion bodies
in prokaryotic cells ;storage of phosphate groups, carbon and other stuff
membrane enclosed organelles
present in eukarya
obligate anaerobes
are poisened by oxygen
photoheterotroph
energy source light; carbon source organic compounds
nitrogen fixation
convert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia; usually prokaryotes do this
chemoautotroph
engergy source is inorganic molecules; carbon source is CO2
obligate aerobes
use oxygen for cellular respiration and cannot grow without it
formylmethionine
initiator a.a. for protein synthesis in bacteria
prokaryotes
found in domain bacteria and archaea
peptidoglycan in cell wall
present in bacteria
eukaryotes
eukaryotes
extreme thermophile
live in very hot enviroments
capsules and slime layers
in prokaryotic; cells resisting to phagocytosis adherence to surfaces
response to antibiotics streptomycin and chloramphenicol
archae and eukarya, growth not inhibited; bacteria growth inhibited
facultative anaerobes
use oxygen if present but can also grow by fermentation in anarerobic environment
prokaryotic cell
a type of cell lacking a membrane enclosed nucleus and membrane enclose organelles. found in bacteria and archae
rna polymerase
bacteria; one kind and archaea and eukarya have several
ubranched hydrocarbons
membrane lipids in bacteria
gas vacoul
in prokaryotic cells allows for buoyancy for floating in aquatic environments
chemoheterotroph
energy source organic compounds; carbon source organic compounds
some branched hydrocarbons
membrane lipids of archaea
photoautroph
energy source is light; carbon source is CO2
nitrogen fixation
absent in eukaryotes
archael cell walls
diff from bacterial cell walls because they have no peptidoglycan; it is made of lipids whose hydrocarbon attach to glycerol in an ether linkage
sterols
present in eukarya
ether bond
Any of a class of organic compounds in which two hydrocarbon groups are linked by an oxygen atom; hc chains attache to glycerol instead of fatty acids
ability to grow at temperatures below 100c
only in archaea
frimbria and pilli
mating things for prokaryotic cells
unbranched hydrocarbons
membrane lipids of eukarya
circular chromosome
not present in eukarya
the three domains of life
bacteria, archea, eukaryae
methogenesis
present in archae
methionine
I.A.A. for protein synthesis for archae and eukarya
