A | B |
Kingdom Monera | single celled, cell wall, prokaryote |
bacillus | rod shaped bacteria |
coccus | sphere or round shaped bacteria |
spirilla | spiral shaped bacteria |
flagella | tail like structure that allows some bacteria to move |
cilia | small hair-like structures that help some bacteria move |
prokaryote | cell with a nucleus |
lytic cycle | viruses deposit their DNA into a host cell, destroy host's DNA, host cell replicates virus DNA, the new viruses leave the host cell and destroy the host cell in the process |
virus | smaller than bacteria, need a host to reproduce, considered nonliving since they do not grow, reproduce or move. |
bacteria | single celled organisms with a cell wall, prokaryote, oldest life form from which other life form's arose |
diplo | when bacteria appear in groups of two |
strepto | when bacteria appear in chains |
staphylo | when bacteria appear in clusters |
diplococcus |  |
diplobacillus |  |
straphyloobacillus |  |
antibiotic | medicine that treats bacterial infection- kills bacteria but not viruses,  |
streptospirilla | bacteria,  |
fission | when a cell splits into two |
