front 1 Consider a gram-positive cell in a hypertonic medium. If the peptidoglycan were damaged, the cell would | back 1 plasmolyze OR ---> (shrink,collapse) |
front 2 The motility of bacteria with flagella occurs through a series of "runs" and | back 2 "tumbles" |
front 3 The term describing bacteria with flagella distributed over the entire surface of the cell is________. When essential nutrients are depleted, some strains of bacteria form, dormant structures that form within cells. | back 3 Peritrichous Endospores |
front 4 Many pathogenic (disease-producing) bacteria have ______ that protect them from phagocytosis by host cells. | back 4 Glycocalyx OR capsules |
front 5 Endoplamsic reticulum that has ribosomes attached to its outer surface is reffered to as | back 5 rough endoplasmic reticulum OR rough ER |
front 6 Chemotaxis refers to the ability of microorganisms to | back 6 move toward or away from chemical stimuli |
front 7 All of the following are found in the cell walls of gram-positive bacteria except | back 7 lipid A |
front 8 Gram-negative cells contain a periplasmic space that is | back 8 rich in degradative enzymes |
front 9 All of the following are true of the gram-negative outer membrane except | back 9 it contains enzymes for energy synthesis |
front 10 A population of bacterial cells has been placed in a very nutrient-poor environment with extremely low concentrations of sugars and amino acids. Which kind of membrane transport becomes a crucial in this environment? | back 10 Active transport |
front 11 Spherical shaped bacteria that divide and remain attached in chainlike patterns are called | back 11 streptoccoci |
front 12 Which of the following about a gram-negative cell wall is not true? | back 12 It has teichoic acids. |
front 13 Which of the following processes requires energy? | back 13 Active transport |
front 14 Which of the following bacterial structures are necassary for chemotaxis? | back 14 Flagella |
front 15 Which of the following statements is true? | back 15 Endospores are extremely durable structures that can be survive high temperatures. |
front 16 The plane in which a bacterial cell that divides determines the arrangement of cells. | back 16 True |
front 17 The cell membrane is a fluid structure that allows membrane proteins to move freely. | back 17 True |
front 18 Acid-fast bacteria demonstrate unique staining properties because of a special protein layer found in their cell walls. | back 18 False |
front 19 Penicillin is more effective against gram-negative bacteria than gram-positive bacteria because it specifically interferes with the synthesis of lipopolysaccharide. | back 19 False |
front 20 The endosymbiotic theory states that eukaryotic organelles evolved from symbiotic prokaryotes living within other prokaryotes. | back 20 True. |
