Bacteria and Archea
-
Prokaryotic Structure
Internal Organization
Genetic material
chromosome
circular, usually one for whole bacteria
-
-
Motility
Taxis
-
methods
flagellum
motor, hook, and filament arrangement extending out of cell to enable movement
Surfaces
capsule
sticky layer of polysaccharide or protein, enable adherence to substrate
-
cell wall
gram-positive
thick walls, more peptidoglycan
gram-negative
complex walls, less peptidoglycan, lipopolysaccharide layer
-
-
-
Prokaryotic Reproduction
Diversity
genetic recombination
transformation
genotype and possible phenotype of a prokaryotic cell are altered by the uptake of foreign DNA from its surroundings
-
transduction
phages carry prokaryotic genes from one host cell to another, usually as a result of accidents that occur during the phage replicative cycle
