Spontaneous Generation
The idea that life can arise on its own.
Who was spotanteous generation disproved by?
Louis Pasture in the mid 1800's.
Miller's Experiment
He reacreated what is believed to be the conditions on ancient Earth.
What was Miller able to produce?
many organic compunds including amino acids
What shapes are bacteria?
Cocci
Bacilli
Sparillia
Gram postive stains bacteria what color?
Purple
Gram negitive stains bacteria what color?
Pink
How do bacteria move?
Flagella, roll, spiral, and some dont move at all
Flagella
Long Whip like tail
How do bacteria accuire energy? (Heterotrophs)
Aerobic, anaebrobic or both (known as facultative anaerobic organisms)
How do bacteria acquire energy? (autotrophs)
Photosythesis- known as blue/green bacterail but it can be almost any color, the red sea has many red bacteria in it
Chemosythesis- get energy from inorganic chemicals
Archaebacteria
Cell walls DONT have peptidoglycen
genes are more like eukaryotic cells believed to be the ancestors of eukayotic cells. they usually live in harsh conditions (high salt, high heat, acidic)
Eubacteria
cell walls have peptidoglycen
not believed to be the ancestors of eukaryotic cells
Human uses for bacteria
Yogurt, tanning leather, antibiotics, cheese, genetic engineering
Protist
eukaryotic, neither a fungus nor animal
How many major catagories are protists put into, name them
3
Animal like protists, Plant like prtists Fungus like prtosists
Ciliophora
have short hair like projections used for moving
Conjugation
preformed by ciliophora which is a form of sexual reproduction
What is an example of a animal-like protist
paramecium
sporozoa
produce spores
not-motile (sationary)
parasitic
zoomastigina
have flagella (a longer version of cilia used for movement)
what are the three groups of protists
animal like protists
plant like protists
Fungus like protists
Ciliophora
have cilis to move around
can preform conjusgations a for of sexual reproduction
what is an example species of animals like protists
paramecium
zoomastigina
have falagella for movement
sporozao
produce sporesnot motile (staionary) allof these are parascitic
sarcodina
have pseudopods (false feet) they move by extending part of their cell membrane and cytoplasm
what is a representitivespecies of sarcodina
ameoboes
(plant-like prtoists) Phytoplankton
tiny photosythetic organisms at the bottom of the food chain plant like prtists make up half of theses
UNicelluar plant like protitss
egeoglenopyls
2 falgells
no cell wall
chlorophyll
eyes spot to sense light
asexual reproduction
diatoms
hard cell wall contains sillica (used as abrasives (toothpast)
Red algae
live up to 260 meters below teh sea b/c they can absorb blue lgiuht
brown algae
largest form of algae
GIANT kelp, like the forests off of california
green algae
makes cellulose and startch (jus lyki plants) same chlorophyll as plants
some uses of algae are...
sushi, ice cream, plastic
Sli,me molds
digest decaying matter
cellular slime molds
remain individual cells their entire existance
lvie on their own buyt when food runs out htey put out a signal, congregate and form a slime colony that movres to a new locations adn releases spores to start the cycle again
Acellular slime molds
like cellular except they congregate and form a d multi-cellular stsucture
water milds
digest dead material in water adn parasitize plants on land
like mold but have cellulose
irish potatoe blight is a water mold
