Document Summary

Enh 222 bonus in-class assignment on bacteria puzzle. Answers: i have been resting for years but can still spring back to live because i have a strong coat and am a gram-positive bacterium. Dna, cytoplasm, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall peptidoglycan (multi-layers), teichoic acids, and endospores: i can swarm and am a motile, gram-negative bacteria. Dna, cytoplasm, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall peptidoglycan (thin layer), lipopolysaccharides, and flagella: i can spin around and am a motile non-gram staining spirochete bacterium. Dna, cytoplasm, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall peptidoglycan (thin layer), and axil filaments: i can stick on to cells and am an adherent gram-negative bacterium. Dna, cytoplasm, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cell wall peptidoglycan (thin layer), lipopolysaccharides, and fimbriae: i can avoid being engulfed by the white blood cells and am a gram-positive bacterium.
