Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic

Eukaryotic have membrane around nucleus and specialized organelles

5 Kingdoms of Life


5 Groups for Micro

Kingdom: Fungi, Plants, Bacteria, Protista, Animalia



Group: Fungi, Plants, Bacteria, Protista, Viruses (non living so not kingdom)

Fungi

Eukaryotic


Yeasts, molds, mildew


Chitin cell wall (polysaccaride)


Unicellular or multicelllar


Cottony appearance. Predigest and absorb food

Plants

Eukaryotic


Cellulous cell wall


Photosynthesize



Bacteria

Prokaryotic


peptidoglycan cell wall (amino acid and glyco)


Some have tails, some photosynthesize


Not parasitic - can live with or w/out a host.


Opportunistic





Protista

Eukarytotic


ameoba, paramisium, slime molds, protozoa, and algae


Flexible cell wall (amoeba)


free entites or parasites


movement: cilla, flagella, or pseudopods

Virus

not a kingdom


DNA *OR* RNA. Not both. Structure varies


No nucleus


Non living


Parasitic (requires host) building blocks (not necessarily nutrients)


Core (dna or rna) and Capside (protein coat)


some have envelope


no cytoplasm

Animalia

No cell wall, eukary

Hooke

1600's


Discovered cells and coined the term

van Leeuwenhoek

1600's


Father of microbiology


First to observe live microbs, first simple microscope


(Drawings of bacteria)

Linneaus

1700's


Nomenclature for organisms


Botanist


Came up wit binomial nomenclature

Binomial Nomenclature

2 name naming system


GENUS and SPECIFIC EPITHET (species name)


genus always first and capital.


species second, non capitalized


both need to be underlined or italized






E. coli

Jenner

1700's
First vaccinations (smallpox)

Semmelweiss

1800's


Aspectic technique (childbirth fever)


first to suggest washing hands

Pasteur

1800's


Pasturization, fermenation


Proved biogenesis (proved that life comes from life)

Redi, Needham, Spallanzani

1800's


to disprove spontaneous generation




redi : mesh


needham: broth experiment- open


spallanzi- sealed but "air" dispute

Lister

1800's


Aspectic surgery (not just technique)

Koch

1800's




PURE CULTURES


Eitology - bacteria causes disease (Koch's postulates ) (Germ theory)




(culture means bacteria growing in short amount of time)

Gram

1800's


Gram staining - 4 step method. Shows cell wall differences


Gram positive is purple or blue (can use antibiotics that destroy cell wall)


Gram negative is red and means the cell wall has less peptides and may have cell wall exotoxins



Escherich

1800's


discovered Escherchia coli

Petri

1800's


Petri dish

Tyndall

1800's


Tyndallization which means boil and cool liquids to sterilize

Golden age of Microbiology

1857-1915

Ehrlich

1900's


Father of chemotherapy (had syphilis)

Flemming

1900's


First discovered penicillin by accident

Trefouel

1900's
Sulfur drugs

Watson/Crick/Franklin

Discovered structure of DNA

McClintok

Transposons (small pieces of DNA that move from one DNA molecule to another

Prusiner

Prions (infectious proteins) (mad cow disease)

Putrefaction

recycling of nutrients

Eutrophication

Changes in water (microbes)

Normal flora

Bacteria everywhere except nervous system

Biotechnology

Using living things to achieve desired products

Define genus

Biological classification. Taxonomic group. It’s a family, usually a noun, descriptive name, environment or research name

Single celled intracellular parasites belong to which Kingdom(s).

Protista

Who disproved spontaneous generation

Pasteur
(Needham, Spallanzi, Redi)

Name the cell wall component for each: bacteria, fungi, plants, protists

bacteria: Protein and sugar (peptidoglycan)


fungi: Chitin (polysaccaride)


plants: Cellulose


protists: Flexible cell wall. Pellicle

How is the scientific name written

First name (genus) is capitalized
second name (species) lower case
all italicized or underlined
Can abbreviate first word - still capital

Who invented the simple microscope? Describe its structure.

Van Leeuwenhoek
Single spherical lens
300x possible

What cells have “no nucleus”

ONLY bacteria don't and viruses

What cells do not have cell walls?


Animal cells

Parasitic, multicellular organisms with oral openings are called what?

Helminths

Which kingdom generally “absorb” their nutrients?

Fungi!

Define species

Adjective
