Kingdoms Archaebacteria and
Eubacteria
SWBAT list the prime characteristic of
organisms in the kingdoms Archaebacteria and
Eubacteria; describe two important aspects of
bacteria; list harmful and helpful effects of
bacteria
The Two Bacteria Kingdoms

What defines a prokaryotic organism?
No defined nucleus
 Lack certain organelles eukaryotes have


List the important facts you find about
bacteria in paragraph 11.A.2.
Microscopic
 Reproduce at an incredibly rapid rate
 Need food, oxygen, and to dispose of waste

Facets of Virology: The Biology of
Viruses

What did you learn about viruses?
A virus is a nucleic acid core with a protein
coat
 It is not alive
 They attach to cells and inject the virus,
using the cell to reproduce
 They cause disease

The Body Structure of Bacteria

What are the three basic types of
bacteria shapes?
Coccus – spherical
 Spirillum – spiral
 Bacillus – rod shaped


What organelle allows bacteria to
move?

Flagella – long whip-like organelle that
allows movement
Facets of Microbiology: Nature’s
Sanitation Engineers

What is the main point of this facet?


God’s design for the world includes
decomposition and He designed certain
organisms to accomplish this process
How does Genesis 3:19 and
Ecclesiastes 3:20 go along with this
idea?

These verses state that decomposition will
happen “to dust you will return”
The Importance of Bacteria

List some of the harmful effects of bacteria?

Cause disease



Produce toxins


Plague
Strep throat
Food poisoning
List some of the helpful effects of bacteria?


Decompose waste
Used in certain foods



Yogurt
Pickles
Used in production of antibiotics
