septicemia, or blood poisoning
is a systemic overreaction to widespread infection in your body
Sepsis
Bacteria in blood can spread and lead to
Sepsis
The term morphology is Greek and is a makeup of morph- meaning

-ology which means
the study of something

Classification of Bacteria: Sphere-shaped
Cocci
CLASSIFICATION OF BACTERIA: Rod shaped

CLASSIFICATION OF BACTERIA: Spiral Shaped
Spirochetes
the cell wall consist of a thick, dense layer of peptidoglycan with teichoic acid in it.
Gram - Positive
the cell wall has a thin layer of peptidoglycan, seperated from the cytoplasmic membrane by the periplasticspace and enclosed by an outer membrane made of lipopolysaccharide, or endotoxin.
Gram - Negative
the cell wall consists mainly of lipids,some of which are true waxes, and some of which are glycolipids.
acid- fast bacteria
2 CATEGORIES OF LIVING CELL
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
No Nucleus,Small and Simple,No organelles,Very abundant,Unicellular,All are bacteria
Prokaryotes
have nucleus,have organelles,have sytoskeleton,can be multicellular or unicellular,Plants,Animals,Fungi,Algae,Parasites,Protist
Eukaryotes
Also classified as PROKARYOTIC CELL
Single cell organism
Environmental microbe
Resembles bacteria but have unusual anatomy, physiology and genetics
(found in rRNA and exhibit a unique method of DNA compaction)
Also has a unique membrane lipid, cell wall composition and pilin proteins
Often called EXTREMOPHILES ( love extreme environmental condition)
