BIOL 326 Study Guide - Midterm Guide: Bacterial Taxonomy, Semiconservative Replication, Cellular Respiration
Document Summary
Give examples of each type: name the 6 kingdoms of classification. List the general characteristics and examples of microorganisms in each kingdom. In which kingdom are viruses classified: describe scientific nomenclature. What is the average cell size of bacteria: describe three cell shapes. Describe the differences in the structure of the cell walls of gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria and acid fast bacteria: describe the structure/properties of phospholipids. Describe the bilayered structure of the cell membrane and how the structure relates to its function. Describe ( in detail) the activities in each phase. Where might you find these organisms growing: describe ph requirements for bacterial growth: optimum ph, neutrophile, acidophile, alkalinophiles. How does excess acid or alkaline ph affect the rate of bacterial growth: oxygen requirements: define aerobes, anaerobes, facultative, microaerophilic. Describe a practical application involving the use of uv light/radiation.
