How Archaea differs from Bacteria and Prokaryotes 1. Cel wal s contain various polysaccharides o NOT peptidoglycan (like in bacteria) or cel ulose (like in plants) or chitin (in fungi) 2. Plasma membranes contain phospholipids that differ from the phospholipids found in bacteria o The glycerol found in archaea phospholipids is an isomer of the glycerol found in o Hydrocarbon chains are branched and attach with ether-linkages (in bacteria and eukaryotes it is un-branched ester linkages) 1. DNA in both archaea and eukaryotes is associated with histone proteins 2. Ribosome activity in archaea and eukaryotes is NOT inhibited by antibiotics (i.e.: streptomyocin • Obligate anaerobes – exist without O2 • Produce methane (CH4) as a by-product of obtaining energy from H2 in order to fix CO2 • Live in mud, swamps and the guts of cows, 1. Halophiles • Live in environments with high salt • Most are aerobic and heterotrophic, which others are anaerobic and photosynthetic with
the pigment bacteriorhodopsin
• Live in hot environments such as hot springs • Most are sulfur-based chemoautotrophs • Other extremophiles live in high acid Domain Bacteria
How Bacteria differs from Archaea and Eukaryotes 1. Bacterial cel wal s are made with peptidoglycan, which is a polymer of a monosaccharide with 2. Bacterial DNA is not associated with histone proteins 3. Ribosome activity can be inhibited with antibiotics (i.e. streptomycin and chloramphenicol) 1. Many bacteria categorized by their mode of nutrition or how they metabolize resources2. Some bacteria are distinguished by their ability to produce endospores o Endospores: resistant bodies that contain the genetic material and a smal amount of
3. Bacteria are distinguished by their means of motility, whether by flagel a, corkscrew motion or gliding through slimy material that they secrete 4. Bacteria are classified into three shapes a. Cocci—sphericalb. Bacil i – rod-shapedc. Spiril a – spirals 5. The wel wal distinguishes between gram(+) and gram(-) bacteria o Gram (+) – has a thick peptidoglycan cel wal
o Gram(-) – thin peptidoglycan wal covered in a layer of liposaccharides
• Photosynthetic, using chlorophyl a to capture light energy, splitting • Phycobilins: accessory pigments
Heterocysts: specialized cel s that produce nitrogen-fixing enzymes
Nitrifying Bacteria: convert nitrite (NO -
• Mutualistic relationship with plants Both bacteria and plant benefit from an interdependent • Nodules: specialized structures in plant roots where this bacteria lives
• Coiled bacteria that move with a corkscrew motion • Flagel a are internal, positioned within the layers of the cel wal Domain Eukarya
Protista
• Protists: Unicel ular eukaryotes that exhibit more structural and functional diversity than any • The evolutionary relationships are not very understood o Some shared features can represent convergent evolution 1. Euglenoids: have one to three flagel a at apical
o P el icles : smal thin strips that wrap around cel o Some have eyespots that permits phototaxis, which is the ability to move in response to light 2. Dinoflagellates: have two flagel a, one of which is
posterior (in the back) while the other is transverse lies o Can produce nerve toxins that concentrate in filter-feeding shel fish, which cause il ness in humans when eaten o Abundant components of marine and freshwater 3. Diatoms: have shel s (tests) that fit together like a box
4. Brown Algae: multicel ular and have flagel ated sperm

pical complex : complex of organel es located at the apex (end) of the cel o No physical means of motility o form spores which are dispersed by hosts that participate in the completion of their life cycles o Ex: sporozoan that cause malaria spend part of life 4. Ciliates: distinguished by their cilia, which they use
o Contain structures like mouths, anal pores, contractile vacuoles, two kinds of nuclei and other 1. Cellular Slime Molds: exhibit fungus-like and
protozoalike characteristics during life cycle o Spores germinate into amoebas which feed on o When food sources are depleted, the amoebas aggregate into a single unit, which migrates as a o Individual cel s of the slug mobilize and form a o The spores repeat the cycle when they germinateo C yclic AMP – secreted by amoebas that experience food deprivation. Serves as the stimulus for aggregation. 2. Plasmodial Slime Molds: Grow as a single unit,
spreading mass (plasmodium) and feeding on decaying vegetation o When food is scarce, stalks bearing the spore o Haploid spores are released from the capsule and germinate into haploid amoeboid or flagel ated o The diploid cel grows into the spreading 3. Oomycota : include water molds, downy mildews and
o Form filaments (hyphae) which secret enzymes  These filaments lack septa (cel s wal s), which in many of the true fungi partition the filaments into compartments o Coenocytic – contain many nuclei within a single o Cel wal s of Oomycota are made of cel ulose Fungi
o Saprophytic: decompose dead materialo Parasitic • Hyphae: bodies of fungi form a network of tiny filaments
o Hyphae are composed of tubular cel wal s surrounding the plasma membrane and • Mycelium: Mass of hyphae
Septa: cross wal s which divide the filaments into compartments containing a single nucleus
o When fungi lack septa, they are multinucleate, or coenocytic
• Cel wal s of fungi are made of chitin
Haustoria: the hyphae of parasitic fungi that penetrate the host
1. Secual reproduction in fungi begins with hyphae from two distinct mycelia release sexual 2. plasmogamy : The union of the cytoplasm of the parent mycelia to produce single cel with
o Dikaryon: pair of haploid nuclei, one from each strain o Dikaryotic Hypha – hyphae containing a dikaryon 3. Karyogamy: the haploid nuclei contributed by the two parents fuse, producing diploid cel s
o Many hours, days or even centuries may pass between plasmogamy and karyogamyo This is the only stage where diploidy exists in most fungio Zygotes and other transient structures form during this time 4. Meiosis of the diploid nucleus restores the haploid condition o Daughter cel s develop into haploid spores, which germinate and form haploid hyphae • Fragmentation – breaking up of hyphae• Budding – the pinching off of a smal hyphal outgrowth • Asexual spores a. Sporangiospores: produced in saclike capsules cal ed sporangia that are each borne on a

• Plants that do not have an extensive transport system (i.e.: xylem and phylem) o They do not have true roots, true stems or true leaveso They must remain smal and water must be readily available for absorption through 1. Gametes are produced within multicel ular organs cal ed gametangia o Female gametangia: archegonia
o Male gametangia: antheridia
2. Antheridia produces flagel ated sperm that swims to the egg through water droplets or water 3. Each egg is fertilized within the archegonium, where the zygote develops into an embryo4.
