Document Summary

Can only survive in the presence of oxygen. The ability of a bacterium to produce a protein that neutralizes an antibiotic. Extremophiles; can survive in high salt and high temperatures. Share traits with bacteria and eukarya but are molecularly and biochemically different. Enzyme that catalyzes the production of atp through phosphorylation with a proton gradient. Membrane spanning proteins that transports protons across a membrane. Creates its own food by using co2 and other simple inorganic compounds. Specialized proteins build a tube off the membrane. Energy converted to shape change which spins motor; 10-18 rpm. Virus does not completely destroy host dna and virus then picks it up. External layer of polysaccharides coating the cell wall of many prokaryotes. Process by which energy rich molecules are broken down into atp. Present in cell walls of fungi and exoskeletons in arthropods. 2 cells come together to exchange dna in the form of the plasmid.
