Name the two basic parts of a virus.
protein coat and inner core
What is a virus?
tiny, non-living particle that invades a cell and
multiplies
How is a virus like a parasite?
It needs a host to reproduce.
What is in the inner core of a virus?
genetic material
What is the best treatment for a
virus?
bed rest and plenty of fluids
How are bacteria classified?
prokaryote
____________ bacteria obtain food by
consuming autotrophs and heterotrophs.
Heterotrophic
Genetic material is passed from one
bacterium to another across a thread-like
bridge during _____________.
conjugation
During _______ ______ a parent cell copies its genetic material and
splits in half to create 2 new cells that look
exactly like the parent cell.
binary fission
Name 4 ways that bacteria move.
flagellum, water, air, other organisms, and
other objects
A protist is classified as a __________.
eukaryote
Animal-like protists are commonly called
_______.
protozoans
What are plant-like protists commonly
called?
algae
What animal-like characteristic does a
euglena have?HINT: food source
They can be heterotrophs.
What plant-like characteristic does a
euglena have?HINT: food source
They can be autotrophs.
What do fungi have in common with
animals?
They are heterotrophs.
Fungi are classified as __________?
eukaryotes
How do fungi reproduce?
spores or budding
How is a fungus like a plant?
It has a cell wall.
Who discovered penicillin?
Fleming
What does the word “protozoan” literally
mean?
first animal
What does the word “pseudopod” literally
mean?
false feet
What is the difference between an active virus and a hidden
virus?
An active virus takes over a cell immediately and begins to multiply. A hidden virus becomes part of the cell for quite a while before it begins
to multiply.
What characteristic do all plant-like protists share?
They are autotrophs.
What is a prokaryote?
An organism that does not have a nucleus.

Why doesn’t the doctor prescribe an antibiotic for a viral
infection?
An antibiotic cannot destroy the outer
protein coat of a virus.
What directly provides energy for a
virus?
host cell
How does a virus move?
air, food, water, or contact with a
contaminated person or object
Why are viruses considered non-living
particles?
They do not show all the characteristics of living
things.
Name a common virus.
chicken pox, common cold, influenza (flu)
A bacteria is classified as a(n)_________ because
it _________ have a nucleus.
A bacteria is classified as a prokaryote
because it does not have a nucleus.
Name a common bacterial infection.
strep throat or staph infection
What process results in bacteria that are
genetically different?
conjugation
Name two shapes of bacteria.
spherical, rod-like, or spiral
What determines the shape of a bacterial
cell?
the make up of the cell wall
What structure allows an amoeba to move?
pseudopods
What structure allows a paramecium to
move?
cilia
What structure allows a euglena to move?
flagellum
An amoeba is considered a(n)

penicillin?
He accidentally allowed a blue-green mold to
grow in a petri dish with the staphylococcus he
was studying.

How does a fungus move?
It relies on air currents or other organisms.
What is the food source for fungi?
