  • Lipopolysaccharides are also known as endotoxins.
  • In prokaryotic ribosomes 50S + 30S = 70S.
  • The glycocalyx can protect bacteria from the immune system.
  • Disinfectants are meant for surfaces.  
  • capsules have a defined shape and can be found in gram-positive and gram-negative cells
  • Prokaryotes lack a nucleus and organelles
  • Mice will die when injected with Smooth strain Streptococcus  pneumoniae and Smooth strain that have been heat killed and rough strain.
  • E coli P fimbriae attach to P antigens.
  • The glycocalyx of streptococcus pneumoniae allows it to be virulent.
  • Bacterial chromosomes are larger than plasmids.
  • Neisseria gonorrhea survives because it can change its fimbriae.
  • Gram-negative bacteria have lipopolysaccharides.
  • Ribosomes are used to make proteins.
  • All cells have cell membranes
  • A thick wall of Peptidoglycan is found in Gram-positive bacteria?
  • Plasma (cell) Membrane and Teichoic Acid are found in Gram-positive bacteria?
  • Integral membrane proteins are embedded in the plasma membrane because they have hydrophobic regions.
  • Neisseria gonorrhoeae hides from the immune system by changing its fimbriae
  • The glycocalyx can be used by bacteria to adhere to surfaces.
  • Order from the inside of a bacterial cell to the outside
    Cell Membrane, Cell Wall, Outer Membrane, and Glycocalyx
  • The fluid mosaic model refers to cell membranes
  • Gram-negative bacteria have two phospholipid bilayers.
  • Biofilms are caused by Glycocalyx
  • Cell Membranes are found in all known cells
  • Prokaryotes have circular chromosomes
  • Autoclaves destroy endospores
  • All living things have ribosomes.  
  • The is glycocalyx involved in
    • Protect against Antibiotics
    • Attaching to surfaces
    • Protect against the immune system
  • What layers surround the cytoplasm of Gram-negative cells going from the inside to the outside?
    Cell Membrane, Cell Wall, Outer Membrane
  • Bacterial Cell walls are made of peptidoglycan
  • Some prokaryotes may have Lipopolysaccharides
  • Plasmids are made of DNA
  • Eukaryotes consist of:
    • Animals
    • Yeast
    • Fungii
  • Fungi and Yeasts have cell walls made of chitin
  • Capsules and slime layers are types of glycocalicies
  • Endospores can survive treatment with disinfectant and antiseptics. 
  • Flagella and Fimbriae can be used by bacteria to move?
  • Biofilms consist of cells and Glycocalyx.
  • What is the shape of Eukaryotic chromosomes
    Linear
  • What makes up the eukaryotic ribosome
    60S + 40S = 80S
