Microbiology A Systems Approach Chapter 6 (Part 1) Absorb - correct answersto soak in Acid fast Bacteria - correct answers-contain mycolic acid (a wax) -resist decolorization by acids during staining -can be a pathogen (tuberculosis, leprosy) Adsorb - correct answersto attach aphthovirus - correct answersfoot and mouth disease Archaea - correct answers-non pathogenic -don't interact with humans -prokaryotic cells -many are found in extreme environments Bacterial Chromosome - correct answers-single circular strand of DNA connected end to end -aggregated in a dense area of the cell-the nucleoid Bacteriophage - correct answersVirus that infects bacteria; discovered in 1915 by Twort and d'Herelle. Bacteriophages - correct answersinject their genes into the host cell capsid - correct answersProtein shell surrounds the nucleic acid Capsomeres - correct answersIdentical protein subunits that spontaneously self assemble to form the capsid Cell cytoplasm - correct answers-gelatinous solution that keeps everything suspended -site for biochemical and synthetic activities -70% - %80 water -contains larger discrete cell masses(chromatin body, ribosomes granules, and actin strands) Cell Envelope - correct answers-protects the bacteri
