Bacteria's role in our world from jdrinks
Bacteria & Viruses Vocabulary
1)Prokaryote: organism that does not have a nucleus
2) Binary fission: reproduction in which one single celled organism splits into two single celled organisms
3) Endospore: contains genetic material and proteins covered by thick, protective coat
4) Eubacteria: bacterial kingdom with more individuals than all other 5 kingdoms combined
5) Archaebacteria: bacterial kingdom that consists of three main types: heat lovers, salt lovers, and methane makers
6) Bioremediation- The biological treatment of hazardous waste by living organisms
7) Nitrogen fixation: process by which nitrogen fixing bacteria take in nitrogen from the air and change it into a form that plants can use
8) Antibiotics: medicine used to kill bacteria and other microorganisms
9) Pathogenic bacteria: bacteria that causes disease
10) Spirilla: spiral shaped bacteria with flagella at both ends
11) Cocci: spherical shaped bacteria
12) Bacilli: rod shaped bacteria
13) Virus: microscopic particle that gets inside a cell and often destroys the cell
14) Host: organism from which a parasite takes food or shelter
15) Crystal: shape of virus that includes polio virus (multi-faceted)
16) Sphere: shape of virus that include influenza virus (round)
17) Cylinder: shape of virus that include tobacco mosaic virus (long and round)
18) Spacecraft: shape of virus that attacks only bacteria (also called bacteriophage)
19) Lytic cycle: reproductive cycle of viruses in which viruses attack living cells and turn them into virus factories
20) Lysogenic cycle: reproductive cycle of viruses in which each new cell gets a copy of the virus’s genes but the genes stay inactive for a long time
