<p> BACTERIA TEST REVIEW GUIDE</p><p>You should review the following: -classification of bacteria in terms of kingdoms and domains -compare prokaryotes with eukaryotes -describe members of Kingdom Archaebacteria – methanogens, thermoacidophiles, halophiles -size and shapes of bacteria (bacilli, cocci, spirilli, spirochetes) -diplo vs strepto vs staphlo -flagella vs. pilli vs. capsule</p><p>-cell wall/Gram staining(gram +ve and –ve) -nutritional modes: heterotrophs, photoautotrophs, chemoautotrophs -respiration (obligate aerobes, obligate anaerobes, facultative anerobes -binary fission -methods of genetic recombination (conjugation, transduction, transformation) -endospores -beneficial bacteria (how are they useful in different categories) -pathogenic bacteria – endotoxins vs exotoxins -examples of bacterial diseases -preventing/treating bacteria</p><p>-aseptic technique -streaking -conditions favouring bacterial growth -agar, autoclave </p>
