Protozoa cell structures


Give this one a try later!


-Plasmalemma - protozoan membrane
-Pellicle - membranes with bands of protein to provide rigidness
-Shape can also be created by outer gel-like layer (ectoplasm) and inside
fluid in cytoplasm (endoplasm)




Phage life cycle


Give this one a try later!

, -virulent phages: lead to death of host cell by lysis
-temperate (latent) phages: become part of host genome until induced to
start making new viruses




Deltaproteobacteria


Give this one a try later!


-gram (-) proteobacteria
-small class
-sulfate reducing bacteria
-desulfovibro orale- periodontal disease
-parasitic Bdellovibro app.
-soil dwelling Myxobacteria "slime bacteria"




green sulfur bacteria


Give this one a try later!


-phototrophic bacteria
-oxidize sulfide




Oomycetes (water molds)


Give this one a try later!

, -similar to fungi but have cell walls composed of cellulose and are
generally diploid
-chromalveolata
-Phytophthorainfestans - potato blight




Helminths


Give this one a try later!


-multicellular parasitic organisms commonly called worms or flukes, posses
organ systems
-have limited digestive tracts, nervous systems, and locomotion

-Cells have two flagella, a stigma (eyespot), & chloroplast (if applicable)
-Generally non-pathogenic with exception: Genus Trypanosoma - agent for
African sleeping sickness and Chagas disease.




Protozoa


Give this one a try later!

, -huge variety of unicellular, non-photosynthetic, motile eukaryotic
microbes
-Life stages: 1.trophozoites (feeding and growing stages) 2.cysts
(encapsulated stage to protect against harsh environments)
-reproduce asexually and sexually
-prominent groups: amoebozoa, excavata, and chromalveolata




HeLA cell lines


Give this one a try later!


-immortal cell line
-obtained from cervical cancer patient Henrietta Lacks in 1951
-cells still alive today




Neutralism


Give this one a try later!


-both are unaffected
-ex:spores in soil




Viral Growth Curve (bacteriophage)


Give this one a try later!


-Bacteriophages can be grown in dense layer of bacteria (bacterial lawn)
-four phases
1.Inoculation - virus causes infection
2.Eclipse - virus binds and penetrates (no virions detected)
