BIOL 1202 Lecture : Bio 1202 Notes From Mon 9 17
Document Summary
Clicker: chemoautotrophs use as an energy source and as a carbon source: inorganic compounds; co2. Clicker: which type of horizontal gene transfer involves a pilus that makes direct contact between two cells: conjugation. Prokaryotic domains: comparison of traits found in the domains bacteria and. Domain bacteria: proteobacteria: gram negative bacteria; 5 subgroups; figure. 27. 17: chlamydias: intracellular parasites, spirochetes, gram positive bacteria: large cell wall in membrane, cyanobacteria: photoautotrophic bacteria; do photosynthesis; commonly known as blue-green algae. Archaeans: are often found in extreme environments, thermophiles thrive in very hot environments, barophiles thrive under high pressure, methanogens live in anoxic environments (ex. Swamps and marshes) produce methane as a waste product: halophiles live in high saline(salt) environments (ex. Clicker: how would you classify a bacterium that lives in hot springs that have a low ph at yellowstone national park: thermoacidophile (low ph means that the water is acidic)
