Answers with Verified Solutions | Latest
Updated 2026
bacteria (microbiology) single-celled or noncellular
spherical or spiral or rod-shaped
organisms lacking
chlorophyll that reproduce by fission
autotrophic Self-nourishing; pertaining to the ability of
an
organism to produce its own nutrients from
inorganic compounds
heterotopic From one part of the body of a donor to
another
area of the body on a recipient
pathogenic disease producing
flagella long projections on a cell's surface whose
whip like
movement helps move the cell
phagocytosis process in which phagocytes engulf and
digest
microorganisms and cellular debris
,bacteriophage a virus that infects bacteria; also called a
phage
mesophilic microorganisms that are most active in
moderate
temperatures ranging from 50 to 113
degrees
Fahrenheit (10- 45 degrees Celsius).
osmosis the diffusion of water through a selectively
permeable membrane
semipermeable characteristic of a cell membrane which
allows
some molecules to pass through but not
others
cytoplasm fluid portion of the cell outside the nucleus
, cell wall/membrane Both the cell wall and plasma membrane
surround
the cell and all the organelles. However;
the
plasma membrane is made of
phospholipids and is
flexible and selectively permeable, while
the cell
wall is stiff cellulose, giving the cell a rigid
ship, and
it is not permeable. Cell walls are found in
plant
and bacteria cells, but in animal cells
whereas the
plasma membrane is found in all cell
types.
microaerophilic A microorganism that requires very little
free
oxygen
facultative aerobic This group of bacteria that grows best
WITH
oxygen but can tolerate being without it
facultative anaerobic bacteria that grows best WITHOUT oxygen
but can
tolerate having some
thermophilic Microbes that grow best at high
temperatures
