Bacteria are formally classified by ? relationships and ? characteristics
phylogenic
phenotypic
Medical identification of pathogens uses an ? system of classification based on ? stain,?, ? reactions, and ? requirements
informal
gram
morphology
biochemical
metabolic
A bacterial species is loosely defined as a collection of bacterial cells that shares an overall ? pattern of traits different from other groups of bacteria
similar
Variant forms within a species are called ? and include strains and ?
subspecies
types
Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology is based solely on ? traits
phenotypic
Bergey's manual of systematic bacteriology that is based on ? and ? sequencing information
phenotypic and rRNA
Many microbiologist prefer an ? working system like ? stains to determine what type of bacteria they are dealing with.
informal
gram
Gram stains in a lab allow for easily performed(accessible) morphological and physiological tests rather than ? relationships, that take longer to perform
phylogenetic
Bacteria don't exhibit a typical mode of sexual reproduction, they reproduce by ? fission which is making ? of themselves ?
binary
clones
asexually
Representatives of a species that stimulate a distinct pattern of antibody responses in their host are called?
serotypes
For many years Cyanobacteria(blue-green bacteria) were called ?
blue-green algae
Cyanobacteria have gram? cell wall that stains ? in a gram stain
negative
pink
Cyanobacteria have a general ? structure
prokaryotic
Cyanobacteria can be unicellular or can occur in ? or ? groupings
colonial
filamentous
Cyanobacteria have an extensive specialized internal membrane called ?
which contains granules of ? and other photosynthetic materials.
thylakoids
chlorophyll a
Cyanobacteria have ? inclusions that permit them to float on water surfaces and ? that convert ? nitrogen into a form usable by plants
gas
cysts
gaseous
Cyanobacteria are responsible for the ? environment we live in today
oxygenic
Green and Purple sulfur bacteria are also ? and contain ? that are green and purple in color
photosynthetic
pigments
GPSB contain ? instead of
chlorophyll- a
bacteriochlorophyll
GPSB do not give off oxygen they are ?
anoxygenic
GPSB live in areas deep enough for anaerobic condition but yet where their ? can absorb light, such as sulfur springs, swamps and freshwater lakes
pigments
? are known as the other Prokaryotes
Archae
Domain Archaea are known as ?
extremophiles
Domain Archaea are the most ? of all life forms
primitive
? are most closely related to the first cells that originated on earth
Archaea
Archaea are ? in general structure
prokaryotic
Archaea share many ? characteristics
bacterial
Evidence may be pointing to Archaea being more closely related to the Domain ? rather than to bacteria, this is being determined by looking at ?
Eukarya
DNA
rRNA
The differences of Archaea from PK's found only in the ? and they have ? membrane lipids and cell wall ?
rRNA
unique
construction
Methanogens are ?
methane producers
Hyperthermophiles love ?
heat
Extreme Halophiles love ?
salt
Sulfur reducers are called ?
thiogenic
Cell membrane of Archaea is made of Long-chain branched ? with ? linkages
hydrocarbons
ether
