3 DomainsBacteria, Archaebacteria and Eubacteria.
main difference among the 6 kingdoms are:cell wall and Chloroplast
Eubacteria and Archaebacteria are different by:Archaebacteria not containing peptoglycan and Eubacteria has peptoglycan.
Bacteria is classified by:Its Shape
Eukaryoteshave a nuclei
ProkaryotesDo not have a nuclei
photoautotrophsSeveral groups of prokaryotes carry out photosynthesis in a manner similar to green plants.
heterotrophsObtains energy from decaying matter; most heterotrophs are prokaryotes
Food Poisoning is caused bybacteria toxins in uncooked food.
What is the basic structure of a virus?Genetic info surrounded by protein capsids.
BacteriophageBActeria causing virus
Lytic infectionprocess in which virus enters cell, makes copy of itself and cause cell to burst
lysogenic infectionVirus embeddes itself into hosts DNA and keeps on replicating itself along with host cell's DNA
ProtistsEukaryotes that are not members of the kingdom Plantae, Animalia, and Fungi
Difference between amoeba, paramecium and euglenamovement and shape
3 main groups of AlgaeRed Algae, Green Algae and Brown Algae
Why are the 3 main group of Algae (red, green and brown) different colors?They have differnret colors due to their pigment collecting different amount of sunlight.
What are the colors of wavelenghts that seawater collect?Red and Violet
Algae BloomAllgae collects in large amounts in the ocean and take away oxygen in the water killing all the organisms in that area.
Algae reproduce bysexual and asexual reproduction
Red TidesDinoflagellites put poison into the water and poisons fish like shellfish which then people eat and can become infected and may die.

AntigensSubstance that triggers the immune response
AntibodiesSpecialized protein that helps destroy disease causing organism
AllergiesAn Immune system reaction
AsthmaInvolves constriction of tissues making it harder to breathe
Germ theoryIdea that infectuous diseases are caused by microorganisms or germs.
Why are mice used most often for lab researchBecause they are cheap and they reproduce quickly
