Is a microbe classified as a Protista or a Fungus?
If we classify microbes on the basis of their cell size , then both fungus and protists are microbes . Microbes include bacteria, Archaea , fungi , viruses , plants like algae and protozoa.
Microbes are very small organisms which can be visible by the microscopes.
What type of microbe is Naegleriasis (amoebic meningoencephalitis) Is it protozoan, bacteria, virus, fungus or Algae?
Match the microbe with its characterisitc: a. Bacteria b. virus c. prion d. fungus e.protozoa 1. anaerobes cannot live in the presence of oxygon. _______ 2. requires water to survive; may habe many intermediate hosts. _______ 3. causes malaria. ________ 4. resistant to all means of sterilization normally used in the health care setting. ________ 5. capable of transforming normal cells into cancerous cells. _________
Match the description with the appropriate group of potentially disease-causing microbe. classified within the animal kingdom basically just an RNA or DNA genome with a protein shell cellular though with substantial differences from the kind of cells that we are made of a.archaea b. bacteria c.saprophytes d. flatworms e. pathogen f. viruses
A microbe has been found in the boiling hot waters of a deep ocean hydrothermal vent. It cannot be readily stained or cultured in the laboratory before its rRNA can be sequenced. Wh hypothesis can you offer regarding its identity? a. Fungus b. Bacterium C. Archaea d. Algae
What is the definition of the taxonomic group, "Protista"?

Microbe 6: Due March 8
Imagine that the amylase enzymes used in this experiment were isolated from a fungus. The fungus secretes amylase into the environment around its cells and absorbs any maltose that is released. Where is it most likely that this fungus grows naturally: a peat bog at pH 4, a swamp at pH 7, or an industrial waste pit at pH 10? (Assume all three environments have the same amount of starch available.) Environment:
Explain the best physical and mechanical methods for microbe elimination. Which microbe forms are the most resistant to destroy, explain your answer.
Microbe 4 This microbe uses light for energy. Its electron source is molecular hydrogen (Ha) and its source of cell nitrogen is ammonium. 1. What is the source of cell carbon for this microbe? 2. Develop the balanced synthesis reaction using ammonium as the source of cell nitrogen. 3. Determine the Gibb's free energy change for the synthesis reaction at pH 7 Units should be kJ/mole of cells at pH 7. 4. What is the nutritional category for this microbe?
What is the niche of each of the four Eukaryotic Kingdoms (Animalia, Fungi, Plantae and Protista)?
