Bacteria are coming from the Greek word bakteria, meaning little stick, even though the first observed bacteria was in a rod shape, bacteria can come in many forms, spirals, spherical in shape. In 1928 a British scientist named Frederick Griffith discovered that previously harmless bacteria could change their own nature and become capable of causing disease (Black, 2012)
What exactly then is a bacteria?
Is a microscopic living one cell organism, consisting of a cytoplasm enclosed in a cell membrane and cell wall, the DNA contains DNA, in their chromosome, yes bacteria only have one chromosome with smaller DNA elements known as plasmids; they also contains ribosomes in the cytoplasm which main responsibility is to be involved in the protein …show more content…
The role of this structure in the pathogenesis of the bacteria is of high medical importance as it helps the bacteria to be propelled or display from one location to another carrying the infection to other areas fast, an example is the Escheria Coli, which can propel from the urethra to the bladder, known as the most common causes of urinary tract infection (UTI’s), and some other as flagellum cannot be seen under microscope without stain, helps to differentiate them using specific antibodies against their proteins, example could be species of salmonellas. Some other bacteria are definitely identified with their motility abilities and characteristics.
Bacteria can move to substances or away from them by a process called Chemotaxis or they can move toward or away from light by Phototaxis movement which are carried on by the use of …show more content…
