Viruses

How do viruses

differ from

bacteria?

• A nonliving particle that needs a host cell to survive

Bacteriophage

Hepatitis

HIV

Made of 2 important things: 1. Contains

either DNA or RNA 2. surrounded by a

protein coat known as a CAPSID

B. Structure

1. Lytic Cycle--virus IMMEDIATELY makes more viruses and destroys the host cell

C. Replication

2. Lysogenic cycle --These viruses can hide in host until signaled to replicate

Thus, Not all viruses replicate immediately.

E. Location of Infection

• Viral infections usually involve several parts of the body

• Examples:Cold and flu

F. Prevention

• Antibiotics CANNOT KILL viruses

• Instead, VACCINES are used to PREVENT viruses.

oVaccine= A dead or weakened version of a virus that helps to increase immunity in the host

The study of: microscopic organisms (bacteria) and particles (viruses)

Benefits of Prokaryotes:

+ food production+ digestion+ water purification+ environment—

decomposersoil spills

—spoil foods —cause disease

A. Facts (cont)

A. Facts (cont)

Environmental Conditions:

a) Obligate aerobe= require oxygen to live

b) Obligate anaerobe= require a complete absence of oxygen to live

c) Facultative anaerobe= either/or (can survive with oxygen, but doesn’t need it)

B. Structure Fill in diagram

C. Reproduction1. MOST bacteria

reproduce by BINARY FISSION (see picture )

2. Conjugation: some bacteria exchange genetic info by forming a temporary bridge

3. Endospore: some bacteria form an endospore and go dormant when conditions are unfavorable

“To appreciate the explosive potential for population increase, consider a single bacterium that can reproduce by fission every 20 minutes under ideal conditions. There would be two bacteria after 20 minutes, four after 40 minutes, eight after 80 minutes, and so on. If this continued for a day and a half—a mere 36 hours—there would be bacteria enough to form a layer a foot deep over the entire Earth.” ~pg. 730 Campbell, N., Reece, J., Taylor, M., Simon, E. (2006). Biology:Concepts and Connections. Fifth edition. New York: Pearson Benjamin Cummings.

E. Location of Infection• Bacterial

infections are USUALLY localized at single point

• Examples:o strep throato urinary tract

F. Treatment• Antibiotics CAN KILL bacteria• Antibiotic = Drugs that combat

bacteria by interfering with various cellular functions.

Superbacteria: Evolution in Action

The misuse and overuse of antibiotics has lead to the evolution of resistant bacteria.

MRSA, TB, gonorrhea, malaria & typhoid fever have all evolved because of antibiotic misuse.

Fun Facts

• There are more bacterial cells in your body than there are human cells.

• Scientists estimate that bacteria produce nearly half the oxygen found in the atmosphere

• There are more microbes on your body than there are humans on the entire planet.

• An area of skin as small as 6.5 square cm (1 square inch) may be home to more than half a million microbes.
