Evolution/Classification





Most numerous on Earth
Most Ancient
Microscopic Prokaryotes
Evolution has yielded many species
adapted to survive where no other
organisms can.
Grouped based on:



Structure, physiology, molec. Composition
reaction to specific types of stain.
Eubacteria= Germs/bacteria
Archaebacteria

Kingdom Archaebacteria


First discovered in extreme environments
Methanogens: Harvest energy by
converting H2 and CO2 into methane gas



Anaerobic, live in intestinal tracts
Extreme halophiles: Salt loving, live in
Great Salt Lake, and Dead sea.
Thermoacidophiles: Live in acid
environments and high temps.

Hot Springs, volcanic vents

Volcanic
vents on the
sea floor

Chemosynthetic bacteria use the
sulfur in the “smoke” for energy
to make ATP.

The red color of this snow is due to a blue-green bacteria
11
Kingdom Eubacteria

Can have one of three basic shapes
1. Bacilli – rod-shaped
2. Spirilla – spiral-shaped
3. Cocci – sphere-shaped
Staphylococci – grape-like
clusters
Streptococci – in chains

BACTERIA PICS
13
Bacillus
bacteria
are rod
or
sausage
shaped
14
Coccus
bacteria
are
sphere
or
ball
shaped
15
Spirillium bacteria have a corkscrew shape
16
Diplo-bacteria
occur in pairs,
such as the
diplococcus
bacteria that
causes
gonorrhea
17
Staphylo bacteria occur
in clumps, such
as this
staphylococcus
bacteria that
causes common
infections of
cuts
18
Streptobacteria occur
in chains of
bacteria, such
as this
streptococcus
bacteria that
causes some
types of sore
throats
19

The red and
yellow dots
are bacteria
24
Gram Stain

Gram-positive retain stain and appear purple


Have thicker layer in cell wall.
Gram-negative do not retain stain and take
second pink stain instead.

STRUCTURE OF BACTERIA
Structure
Function
Cell Wall
Protects and gives shape
Outer
Membrane
Protects against antibodies (Gram Neg. Only)
Cell
Membrane
Regulates movement of materials, contains
enzymes important to cellular respiration
Cytoplasm
Contains DNA, ribosomes, essential compounds
Chromosome
Carries genetic information
Plasmid
Contains some genes obtained through recomb.
Capsule &
Protects the cell and assist in attaching cell to
Slime Layer other surfaces
Endospore
Protects cell agains harsh enviornments
Pilus
Assists the cell in attaching to other surfaces
Flagellum
Moves the cell
26
No Nucleus-DNA in Cytoplasm

Nutrition and Growth




Heterotrophic or Autotrophic
Some are Photoautotrophs – Use sunlight for Energy
Some are Chemoautotrophs.
Many are Obligate Anaerobes.
 Oxygen = Death
 Ex.

Some are Faculatative Anaerobes
 With or without Oxygen

Clostridium tetani – Tetanus
Escherichia Coli
Some are Obligate Aerobes
 Ex.) Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Temperature requirements

Some are Thermophilic, Some prefer acidic envmt.

REPRODUCTION
IN
BACTERIA
(please add to notes)
30
No Nucleus-DNA in Cytoplasm
31
BACTERIA REPRODUCES
BY FISSION
First the chromosomal DNA
makes a copy
The DNA replicates
32
NEXT THE CYTOPLASM
AND CELL DIVIDES
The two resulting cells are
exactly the same
33
In addition to
the large
chromosomal
DNA, bacteria
have many
small loops of
DNA called
Plasmids
34
Genetic Recombination

Nonreproductive Methods bacteria can acquire new
genetic material.

Some Final Information


Because antibiotics have been overused,
many diseases that were once easy to
treat are becoming more difficult to
treat.
Some Bacteria are Useful



Ex.) Producing and Processing food
Breaking down dead organic material
Make unripened cheese like ricotta and
cottage by breaking down the protein in
milk.
