MICROBIOLOGY rbethel 5/8/2017 MICROBIOLOGY REVIEW for EXAM #1 Exam will cover material in Bauman, Chapts. 2, 3,5, 6, 11 (partial), 12 (partial) Basic Concepts Chemistry of living cells (Ch. 2) Cell structure (Ch 3) Bacterial Taxonomy (Ch 11) Eukaryotic taxonomy (fungi, protists) (Ch 12) Cellular metabolism (Ch 5) Bacterial nutrition (Ch 6) CHEMISTRY Know the four categories of biochemicals : carbohydrates, proteins , lipids , nucleic acids their basic structures and composition and their functions Know the basic concepts of pH and its relation to biochemical reactions Know the basic concept of oxidation- reduction reactions Describe basic enzyme function and regulatory reactions CELL STRUCTURE (anatomy) Know the structural differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells Know the basic structure of the cell membrane Know the structural, chemical differences between Gram positive and Gram negative cells Know the shapes of the bacteria discussed in class Know the extra-cellular projections of bacterial cells and their functions TAXONOMY Know the taxonomic types discussed in class : bacteria : eubacteria, gram + and Gram – archaea fungi four phyla protists four structural types Explain the major differences between these four organism groups CELLULAR METABOLISM Know the how catabolism and anabolism are connected Explain the various ways bacteria utilize nutrients for energy (carbohydrates, proteins and lipids) Explain the basic catabolic pathways Describe how ATP is made in bacteria Explain fermentation pathways and the reasons behind their use Explain anaerobic respiration Explain the concept of the metabolic pool BACTERIAL NUTRITION Identify the macro and micro nutrients and their roles Describe the nutritional categories of bacteria MICROBIOLOGY rbethel 5/8/2017 Describe the differences between aerobes and anaerobes and the biochemical reasons behind them Describe the different categories of bacteria based on temperature, pH, and osmotic pressure.
