UNIT 8:Chapter 19 Bacteria and Viruses BACTERIA The beautiful colors in this sulfur spring are caused by the bacteria that live in it. Bacteria can survive in extreme habitats. Prokaryote Review No nucleus Mostly single -celled
Circular chromosomes Cell walls Reproduce mostly asexually Anaerobic or aerobic Heterotrophic or autotrophic Archaebacteria Methane producers anaerobic Halophiles Thermophiles
Halo = salt Philia = love Thermophiles Thermo = heat THESE BACTERIA CELLS HAVE PEPTIDOGLYCAN IN THEIR CELL WALLS TO PROTECT THEM FROM THE EXTREMELT HOT TEMPERATURES. Hey you, Bacteria, I love your shape!!! (Eubacteria)
Shapes: Cocci, Bacilli, and Spirilla How are these words associated with bacteria? Baking soda Yogurt Tooth decay Vitamins Road kill Bacteria are Named by Shape
Coccus (ball-shaped) Streptococcus mutans Bacillus (rod-shaped) Clostridium botulinum Spirilli (spiral-shaped) Treponema palladium Prokaryotic Body Plan DNA capsule plasma membrane

THIS IS DONE WHEN THE BACTERIAS DNA COMBINES WITH INSULIN PRODUCING GENES FROM HUMAN. VIRUSES Are viruses alive? Only 1 characteristic of life: reproduction
Can only reproduce inside a host cell! Process or reproduction = lytic cycle Like bacteria, viruses produce disease by disrupting the bodys normal equilibrium (homeostasis). Figure 19-11 Viruses and Cells
Section 19-2 Figure 19-10 Lytic and Lysogenic Infections Diseases caused by viruses:
Common Diseases Caused by Viruses Diseases caused by viruses: Section 19-3 Type of Virus Nucleic Acid Disease Oncogenic viruses Retrovirus Adenoviruses Herpesviruses Poxviruses DNA RNA Cancer Cancer, AIDS Respiratory infections Chickenpox Smallpox Lysis of host cell is induced; infectious particles escape.
LyticPathway Tail fibers and other parts are added to coats. Virus particles bind to wall of suitable host. Viral genetic material enters cell cytoplasm. Viral protein molecules are assembled into coats; DNA is packaged inside. Viral DNA directs host machinery to produce viral proteins and viral DNA. Stepped Art Fig Page 358 Viral DNA usually becomes integrated into the bacterial chromosome.
Lysogenic Pathway Viral DNA is excised from chromosome and cell enters lytic pathway. Prior to prokaryotic fission, the chromosome and integrated viral DNA are replicated. After binary fission, each daughter cell will have recombinant DNA. Stepped Art Fig (2) Page 358 Viral Body Plans Genetic material is DNA or RNA Coat is protein
Complex virus (bacteriophage) Genetic material is DNA or RNA Coat is protein Helical virus Polyhedral virus Fig Page 356 LYTIC CYCLE-virus replication Enveloped Virus (HIV) viral protein lipid envelope (derived from host)

Lytic and Lysogenic Cycles Click the image to play the video segment. Video Virus Nucleic Acid DNA viruses stable, do not mutate rapidly
Single-stranded or double-stranded Smallpox, Hepatitis B RNA viruses mutate rapidly, unstable HIV, Rhinovirus Evolution and Disease Host and pathogen are coevolving
If a pathogen kills too quickly, it might disappear along with the individual host Most dangerous if pathogen Is overwhelming in numbers Is in a novel host Is a mutant strain Nature of Diseases Contagious disease pathogens must directly contact a new host Epidemic Pandemic (AIDS) Sporadic Endemic New Threats Emerging Pathogens Drug-resistant strains Food poisoning
Ebola virus Monkeypox virus Drug-resistant strains Food poisoning E. coli Salmonella
