Document Summary

(cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) These bacteria produced the natural gas that we currently burn as fuel. Space between the 2 lipid layers of the gram-negative bacterium. Changes and mutations are expressed immediately in bacteria because of this structure of the genome (haploid structure) Pathogenicity of gram-negative bacteria is often associated with this membrane layer of bacterial cell wall. The little hairs found on the surface of some bacteria. These proteins change the direction that the bacterial flagellum rotates. This form of bacterial diversity is best seen in the different choices of electron acceptors used in respiration. Components of the electron transport chain pump these across the membrane. Three number of domains that living world is divided into (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) In terms of their gram" designation these bacteria have the reinforcing elements of the cell wall at the surface they stain.
