Prokaryote


Phylum: Cyanobacteria


Genus: Oscillatoria


Named for oscillation in movement. Cyanobacteria are oxygenic photoautotrophs.

Prokaryote


Phylum: Firmicutes


Genus: Bacillus


Endospore formers. Catalase & Gram positive.

Prokaryote


Phylum: Proteobacteria


Genus: Proteus


Inhabits intestinal tract of humans/animals. Opportunistic pathogen. Causes UTI and wound infection.


Prokaryote


Phylum: Firmicutes


Genus: Staphylococcus


MRSA causes infections, food poisoning, toxic shock syndrome.

Prokaryote


Phylum: Firmicutes


Genus: Streptococcus


May cause strep throat and pneumonia.

Virus


Family: Papovaviridae


Type: Human Papilloma Virus


1000 types of HPV. DNA Virus. 1/3 infect mucosal epithelium; can be sexually transmitted and a few may cause cancer.

Virus


Family: Herpesviridae


Type: Herpes


8 herpes viruses that infect humans.


Can cause latent or lytic infections. Enveloped viruses.

Enveloped RNA virus. 3 types influenza. Type A most likely cause major illness. 8 RNA segments.

Virus


Family: Picornaviridae


Type: Rhinovirus


Contains RNA. Icosahedral symmetry.

Virus


Family: Caliciviridae


Type: Norovirus


RNA virus. Transmitted fecal contaminated food or watern person-person contact.

Fungi


Division: Ascomycete


Genus: Aspergillus


Produces aflatoxins, a mycotoxin which can induce liver cancer.

Fungi


Phylum: Ascomycete


Genus: Penicillium

Coccus, bacillus, spirillum, pleomorphic.

Some bacteria move by what?

Flagellum (monotrichous, amphitrichous, lophotrichous, peritrichous)

Gram (+) cell wall

Gram (-) cell wall

Endospore
