TWENTY-SIX

• Bacteria can reproduce both sexually and asexually. How many parents does each require? What is the advantage of asexual reproduction? What is the disadvantage? What is the advantage of sexual reproduction?

TWENTY-SEVEN

• Name 3 ways that bacteria is used for positive things.

ANSWERS

• 1. towards you• 2. upside-down• 3. right• 4. place object on slide, add a few drops of water and or

dye, place a cover slip on top• 5. B• 6. use the lowest objective lens, adjust the coarse focus

first and then the fine focus; switch to a higher objective and use the fine focus ONLY to adjust the image

• 7. the base and the neck/arm

• 8. yes, VERY fragile• 9. diaphragm• 10. thin, so the light can pass through• 11. always use the lowest power first• 12. answers vary• 13. cells, similar chemicals, use energy, grow and

develop, respond to the environment, reproduce• 14. chloroplasts, cell wall• 15. cell membrane

• 16. cytoplasm• 17. mitochondria• 18. nucleus• 19. ribosomes• 20. vacuole• 21. respiration• 22. binary fission• 23. conjugation

• 24. decomposer• 25. prokaryotic: simple, DNA not in nucleus, single

celled, lack some organelles/structures that more complex cells have

• 26. sexual: NEGATIVE-2 parents, POSITIVE-combine genetic material to get new offspring; asexual: POSITIVE-1 parent, NEGATIVE-exact copy means there is no variety

• 27. food, fuel, health care, medicine, clean up environment
