1 three types of microbes microbes which require oxygen jelly-like substance from seaweed used to grow and fungi common name for ethanol C 2 H 5 OH, fungi, virus aerobic agar alcohol microbes which don t require oxygen medicine taken internally capable of killing pathogenic & fungi which looks shiny on an agar plate the way reproduce by splitting into two antibiotic binary fission the slimy protective layer around part of a which controls movement of materials in & out of it part of a which gives it it s shape word which means to grow microbes (slime) capsule cell membrane cell wall culture a microorganism which causes decay which convert nitrogen containing compounds into nitrogen gas, N 2 a powerful chemical which kills microorganisms DNA stands for decomposer / saprophyte denitrifying disinfectant deoxyribonucleic acid

2 the spread of an infection within a country rapid increase in the numbers of microbes in a population process which converts sugar into alcohol using yeast another name for respiration in yeast epidemic exponential growth fermentation / respiration fermentation tail like structures which help to move which looks fuzzy, furry or threadlike on an agar plate examples of fungi fine threads which make up the structure of fungi flagellum fungi yeast, moulds, mushrooms, toadstools hyphae part of the fungi which carries out extra cellular to place the microbes in a suitable (warm) place to grow process of putting microbes onto an agar plate to grow another word used for food hyphae incubate / incubation inoculate / innoculation nutrient the spread of an infection to other countries process by which microbes feed an organism which lives off another living thing method of treating milk by rapid heating to reduce l contamination pandemic extra-cellular parasite / parasitic pasteurisation

3 a disease causing microbe the round shallow dish of plastic or glass used to grow and fungi method of growing viruses why viruses don t grow on agar plates pathogen petri dish in fertilised hens eggs they need living (host) cells to reproduce the process by which living cell release energy from food the word which means living off dead plant or animal material the ball shaped part of fungi which produce spores the tiny reproductive cells of fungi respiration saprophytic sporangium spores word used to describe an object which is free from microbes name for athlete s foot, a fungal infection which causes red itchy skin between the toes poisonous substances produced by microbes, particularly made up of nuclear material and a protein coat sterile tinea toxins virus single celled (unicellular) fungi used to make bread and wine yeast virus sporangium hyphae

4 spores fungi virus (bacteriophage) conditions are needed for and fungi to grow process protein coat nuclear material, DNA or RNA warm, moist & a food source binary fission HIV, measles, mumps, chicken pox, common cold etc are caused by athlete s foot, thrush and ringworm are caused by typhoid, diphtheria, whooping cough, meningitis, tetanus etc are caused by why petri dishes incubated upside down viruses fungi to avoid the condensation dripping on agar where fungi and come from that cause fruit to rot why a compost heaps get hot three foods produced by fungi layer around outside the air heat produced by microbes carrying out respiration (3 from) bread, yoghurt, wine, cheese, beer (slime) capsule

5 Shapes of Bread CO 2 produced by respiration of, makes bread rise (bubbles) Cheese Excreted waste lactic acid made by during respiration causes milk to curdle Wine / Beer Alcohol produced by fermentation which occurs as respire anerobically (without oxygen) coccus (round),bacillus (rod),vibrio (comma), spirillum (spiral) yeast yeast Wine / Beer CO 2 produced by respiration of, gives alcohol fizz (bubbles) Yoghurt Lactic acid produced by during respiration lowers ph of milk, causing it to curdle and forming curds. Word that means feeds on / eats / gains nutrients from living material / living things / living cells / living tissues /organisms. secrete/release enzymes break down/digest food/nutrients absorb digested food yeast parasitic extracellular convert a nutrient into a simpler / another form, which can be reused by another organism break down dead organic matter containing N / C into simpler compounds which can be used by other organisms as food /nutrients Cycle Break down of organic matter containing protein. Conversion into ammonia / nitrates. These can then be absorbed by plants from the soil (as nutrients) Cycle Break down of organic matter containing carbohydrates and fats; Microbes respire / excrete CO 2 into the atmosphere to be used by plants: photosynthesis nutrient cycling saprophytes / decomposers Nitrogen Carbon substances that slow down / inhibit the reproduction / metabolism / chemical processes / growth of other micro-organisms (randomly) mutate & are now not killed by antibiotics. Reproduce making more with the ability to survive the antibiotic. This is called dead / weakened form of specific microbe that induces person s body to make antibodies in advance, so it can respond quickly and kill the microbe if they infect the body reproduce inside living body cells causing the cells to die so organs malfunction antibiotics antibiotic resistance vaccine viruses
