Bacilli: - Rod-shaped 2. Cocci: - Spherical (round like a coconut)3. Spirilla: - Long and spiral shaped.Heterotrophic Bacteria1. Free-living consumers: E. coli Azobacter converts initrogen into ammonium, making it available for plant use;E. coli lives in your colon, feeds on your waste and makes vitamin K for you.2. Parasitic: Always needs an organism to get food or shelter (host): Impetigo is caused by strains Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes.3. Decomposers: Pseudomonas bacteria in the soil recycles dead plants and animals by turning them into minerals and nutrients that plants and microbes can use.Autotrophic BacteriaProducers -> Use sunlight to make food and are often green. Example: Cyanobacteria: Blue-green algaeLives in waterHas chlorophyll (green pigment for photosynthesis) Some others have blue or red pigment.Domain EukaryotaEukaryoteUnicellular or multicellularIncludes Kingdom Animalia, KingdomPlantae, Kingdom Fungi and Protista.Protist KingdomsEukaryoteUnicellularHeterotroph or AutotrophNo cell walls in ProtozoaProtista includesProtozoa of 4 main groups: classified based on movementProtista includesseveral types of Algae and Seaweed classified based on chemical criteria (PS pigments)Kingdom PlantaeEukaryotemulticellularAutotrophs: PhotosynthesisStrong cell walls made of cellulose4 Main Divisions of PlantsKingdom FungiEukaryoteMulticellular or possibly unicellularHeterotroph: absorb nutrients from decomposing organismsCell walls made of protein (chitin), not cellulosevideoFungi are classified by how they make SPORES9 Major Animal PhylaPorifera (sponges)Cnidaria (jellyfish)Platyhelminthes (flatworms)Nematoda (roundworms)Annelida (segmentedworms)Mollusca (snails, clams, squid)Arthropoda (insects, crabs)Echinodermata (starfish)Chordata (vertebrates)Kingdom AnimaliaEukaryotemulticellularHeterotroph: eat other organismsCells lack cell wallsVIRUS: NOT A KINGDOM!!What is a virus?•Non-living particle, smaller than a cell that can infect living organisms (hosts).Structure of Virus:•Capsid (Protein coat)•Genetic Material (DNA or RNA)How to Classify Viruses1. By their shape2. Type of disease they cause.3. Kind of genetic material they have (DNA, RNA)Shapes:1. CylindersEx. Tobacco mosaic virus, attacks tobacco plants. 2. SpheresEx. Influenza virus3. CrystalsEx. Polio Virus 1. Spacecraft - Attacks only bacteria.Lytic CycleProcess used by virus using a cell to make more of their kind.Lysogenic CycleAre virus alive? Don’t eat, grow, or break down food. They are not made of cells.They need a host cell to reproduce. There is no cure, only a treatment. Antibiotics DO NOT kill virusesAntiviral medications only stop viruses from
