BACTERIA
![Page 2: Bacteria](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5c8b7bb61eb5d748b46ad/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Kingdom Eubacteria (True Bacteria)Bacteria are located everywhere – air, water, land, and living organisms including people.
General Characteristics: 1. All are unicellular (one-celled structural level)
2. All are prokaryotic - cells that lack nucleus (no nuclear envelope) (PRO = NO nucleus)
3. All have cell walls – NO cellulose in cell walls 4. Can live in both aerobic (with O2) and anaerobic (without O2) environments

5. Bacteria usually have one of three different cell shapes:
Coccus(Sphere-shaped)
Ex: Streptococcus
Bacilli(rod-shaped)
Ex: Lactobacillus
Spirillum(Spiral-shaped)
Ex: Spirillium

•Motility - movement•Swarming occurs with some bacteria•Arrangement basis for classification•Monotrichous; 1 flagella•Lophotrichous; tuft at one end•Amphitrichous; both ends•Peritrichous; all around bacteria
Flagella

Pili •Short protein appendages
smaller than flagella•Adhere bacteria to surfaces•F-pilus; used in conjugation
Exchangeofgenetic information

Cell Membrane•Bilayer Phospholipid•Water can penetrate•Flexible•Not strong, ruptures easily

Capsule or Slime Layer
•Glycocalyx - Polysaccharide on external surface•Adhere bacteria to surface•Prevents Phagocytosis

Cytoplasm
•80% Water {20% Salts-Proteins)•DNA is circular, Haploid•Plasmids; extra circular DNA•No organelles (Mitochondria, Golgi, etc.)

Endospores
•Resistant structure(Heat, irradiation, cold)
•Takes time and energy to make spores•Location important in classification
(Central, Subterminal, Terminal)

Causes Disease by:
1. Destroying cells of infected organisms by breaking the cells down for food.
![Page 13: Bacteria](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5c8b7bb61eb5d748b46ad/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2. Releases toxins (poisons) which destroy cells of infected organism.
3. Must have access to new hosts to spread.

D. Importance:1. Beneficial
a. breakdown dead matter to recycle nutrients into ecosystem - decomposers

b. dairy industry - bacteria in
yogurt, sour cream and cheese
c. Oil spills - bacteria can digest small oil spills

d. Genetic engineering—
Recombinant/synthetic DNA (Ex:
Insulin)

e. symbiotic relationship - E. coli and our intestines-both organisms benefit
Example: E. coli in intestines helps us digest food and make vitamins (such as Vitamin K and B-complex) In return, human intestines provide food and shelter for bacteria.
(This strain of E. coli is different from the E. coli strain that causes food poisoning.)

Harmful :a. human diseases –
strep throat, tuberculosis, tooth decay and bad breath, anthrax, plague, tetanus, food poisoning
Tetanus
Strep Throat
Anthrax

b. food spoilage and poisoning – caused by Salmonella and Staphylococcus
c. Treated with antibiotics – Some bacteria are able to survive in presence of antibiotics that kill other bacteria – antibiotic resistant bacteria
Note: This is why doctors tell you to take the entire amount of medicine given even if you start to feel better because if not, bacteria will have the chance to evolve and become antibiotic resistant.
