| 8. Describe Prokaryotes | They are single celled organisms that lack organelles such as nucleus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria |
| 27. Which two domains consist entirely of prokaryotes? | Bacteria and Archaea |
| 9. How are Prokaryotes classified? | 9. shape, means of locomotion, pigments, nutrient requirements, the appearance of colonies, and staining properties. |
| 10. What has improved our understanding of the evolutionary history within the prokaryotic domains? | Comparison of DNA and RNA nucleonic sequences |
| 11. What is the understanding of the robust classification of prokaryotes? | It is a work in progress |
| 12. What are the three common prokaryote shapes? | 1. Spherical bacteria 2. Rod-shaped bacteria 3. Corkscrew-shaped bacteria |
| 13. What are traits that allow prokaryotes to survive and reproduce? | Motility, biofilms, protective endospores, specialized for extreme habitats, diverse metabolisms, produce by binary fission, may exchange genetic material without reproducing |
| 14. What feature allows Bacteria and Archaea prokaryotes to have motility? | Most have flagella at one end or scattered all over the cell. They can rotate rapidly and propel the organism through its liquid environment. |
| 15. How do bacterial biofilms affect humans? | tooth decay, gum disease, and ear infections |
| 16. What major disease's bacteria form endospores that can be easily dispersed by terrorists? | Anthrax |
| 17. What is unique about anaerobic prokaryotes? | They don't require oxygen. |
| 18. What is the main characteristic of an aerobic prokaryote? | It requires oxygen at all times. |
| 19. True or False - Most prokaryotes reproduce asexually. | True |
| 20. Under ideal conditions some prokaryotic cells can divide so rapidly that sextillion offspring can arise in one day. What are the implications? | New mutations can arise and reproduce quickly |
| 21. What is conjugation and what are sex pili? | Conjugation in prokaryotes is the transfer of DNA from one cell to another via a temporary connection. Sex pili are specialized extensions of bacteria donor cells that attach to a recipient cell, drawing it closer to allow conjugation. |
| 22. What are the main functions of prokaryotes in the cycle of life? | They help plants and animals obtain vital nutrients and help break down and recycle wastes and dead organisms. We could not survive without prokaryotes. |
| 23. How do prokaryotes help animals digest food? | The reside inside the animals in the digestive tract and break down the food so the animal can obtain the nutrients. |
| 24. How do prokaryotes get nitrogen to plants so they can grow? | There are nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in soil and in specialized nodules. These bacteria capture nitrogen gas from air trapped in the soil and combine it with hydrogen to produce ammonium which is a nitrogen-containing nutrient that plants can use directly. |
