Archaea
The domain of life that contains procaryotic cells with cell walls that lack peptydoglycan; they have UNIQUE LIPIDS, and ARCHAEAL rRNA (among many diffs)
Bacteria
The domain of life that contains procaryotic cells with cell walls that CONTAIN the structural molecule PEPTYDOGLYCAN have BACTERIAL rRNA
Eucarya
The domain of life that features organisms made of cells that have a MEMBRANE DELIMITED NUCLEUS. Includes PROTISTS, FUNGI, PLANTS, ANIMALS
Fungi
unicellular forms like YEAST, to multicellular MOLDS, MUSHROOMS
Koch's Postulates
specific organism causes specific disease
Microbiology
study of orgnisms too small to see with the naked eye
Prions
infectious agents that cause encephalopathies i.e. scrapie in sheep
procaryotic cells
cells that LACK a true membrane enclosed nucleus: BACTERIA - ARCHAEA (genetic material in NUCLEOID)
protists
algea, protists. unicellular EUCARYOTIC organisms that DO NOT DIFFERENTIATE into tissues.
viroids
infectious agents composed of SINGLE STRANDED RNA. Plant diseases
viruses
simple acellular organization with a protein coat and nucleic acid genome, lacking independent metabolism, reproduces only in host cell.
virusoids
infectious agents composed of only SINGLE STRANDED RNA . Need OTHER VIRUSES to replicate.
algae
photosynthetic seaweed
PROKARYOTIC CELLS
NO NUCLEUS
EUKARYOTIC CELLS
Membrane enclosed nucleus
Viruses
NOT CELLS! Collection of protein and nucleic acid
Stromatolites
communities of cyanobacteria in clumps
cyanobacteria
obtain energy through photosynthesis. Most successful organism. Oxygenic photosynthesis.
Koch
Identified many bacteria - Pure culture techniques.
Pasteur
Fermentation - figured out how to make the process better. Important to wine makers in France.
Jenner

Leeuwenhoek
First microscope 1687
nitrogen fixation
only prokaryotes can do it
E. coli
Gram Negative model
