Students will be evaluated through exams, labs, activities, and a final exam. Learning resources include medical microbiology textbooks and online sources. The document then provides background information on bacteria and their classification, including an overview of prokaryotic life, the universal tree of life consisting of three domains, and methods for identifying bacteria.
Comparing The 18Th Century Physician And Botanist Linnaeus...Natasha Barnett
- Linnaeus established a taxonomic system in the 18th century that classifies organisms in a hierarchy of kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species. Later, biologists added the category of domain above kingdom to distinguish between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
- Prokaryotes, which include bacteria and archaea, are single-celled organisms that evolved earlier than eukaryotes and have simpler cellular structures without membrane-bound organelles. Their cells reproduce through binary fission.
- Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells share basic cellular components like DNA, ribosomes, and cell membranes. However, prokaryotes lack
The document discusses the key differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus that contains their DNA, while prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells also have membrane-bound organelles that compartmentalize functions, whereas prokaryotic cells do not. This compartmentalization within eukaryotic cells provides evolutionary advantages such as increased efficiency of functions. The electron transport chain that generates ATP occurs in mitochondria in eukaryotic cells.
Evolution of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cellsE Jei Torres
Cells can be divided into two main types: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and other organelles, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus enclosed within membranes. It is believed that eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells when ancient bacteria were engulfed but not destroyed by their hosts, eventually evolving into the mitochondria and chloroplasts found in modern eukaryotic cells. This endosymbiotic theory explains the origin of the more complex eukaryotic cell structure.
The document discusses the evolution of classification systems for life on Earth. It describes how the system has changed from two kingdoms of animals and plants proposed by Linnaeus, to the current three domain system of Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. The six kingdom system included Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, Eubacteria and Archaebacteria. Modern classification aims to accurately reflect evolutionary relationships between all organisms living and extinct on a single tree of life.

Here are the answers to your questions:
1. Light is important to algae because most algae use photosynthesis to produce their own food, requiring light as an energy source.
2. When red tide occurs, it is dangerous to eat clams because red tide is caused by an algal bloom of certain dinoflagellates that produce toxins which can accumulate in shellfish and cause Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning if the shellfish are eaten.
3. Five uses of protists include: as food sources for other organisms in aquatic ecosystems, as decomposers to break down organic matter, as pathogens that cause diseases in humans and other organisms, as sources of antibiotics and medicines, and some prot
Biology is the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, evolution, and taxonomy. It recognizes the cell as the basic unit of life and genes as the basic unit of heredity. Biology studies organisms from the cellular level to entire populations and ecosystems.
Microorganisms can be divided into prokaryotic and eukaryotic groups. Prokaryotes like bacteria and archaea originated earliest on Earth and initiated an oxygenated atmosphere through endosymbiosis and panspermia, allowing new lifeforms to evolve over billions of years. Microorganisms make up most of Earth's biomass and play crucial roles in ecosystems by producing oxygen, decomposing waste, and nourishing other organisms, though some can cause disease. They are classified into 7 types - bacteria, archaea, fungi, algae, protozoa, viruses, and multicellular animals - based on their cellular structure, genetics, and metabolism.
The document discusses the hierarchical classification of microbes and their position in the tree of life. It describes Whittaker's five kingdom system and Woese's three domain system. The three domain system divided all life into Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya based on rRNA sequences. This system helped reclassify microbes and changed perceptions of their evolutionary relationships.

This document discusses the evolution of biological classification systems from early attempts based on use and morphology to more modern scientific approaches. It describes how Aristotle initially classified organisms based on simple morphological characteristics, while Linnaeus developed a two kingdom system of Plantae and Animalia. However, this did not adequately distinguish key differences and many organisms did not fit into either category. The five kingdom system proposed by Whittaker in 1969 introduced the kingdoms of Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia based on criteria like cell structure, body organization, nutrition and phylogeny. This system attempted to group organisms more scientifically based on evolutionary relationships rather than just morphology.
The document discusses the kingdoms Monera and viruses. It covers the characteristics of bacteria, including that they are prokaryotes, single-celled, and the oldest and most abundant organisms. It describes the two kingdoms of archaea and eubacteria. Archaea include extremophiles like thermophiles and methanogens. Eubacteria are more diverse and make up most bacteria. Key bacterial structures and processes like shape, nutrition, respiration, and reproduction are summarized.
This document provides information about viruses and bacteria. It discusses the structure and reproduction cycles of viruses, including how they infect host cells and use the host's machinery to replicate.

This document summarizes different types of parasites that can infect humans. It describes three main classes of parasites: protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites. Protozoa are unicellular organisms that can be pathogenic. The document focuses on two pathogenic protozoa: Entamoeba histolytica and Giardia lamblia. It provides details on the trophozoite and cyst stages of each organism's lifecycle and how they are transmitted and can cause disease in humans.
The document discusses acid-base balance and buffer systems in the body. It explains that the body has three main systems to defend against changes in hydrogen ion concentration: 1) body fluid buffers, 2) lungs, and 3) kidneys, with the kidneys being the most powerful. Buffers are solutions that resist pH changes upon addition of acids or bases and maintain pH. The main chemical buffers in the body are the bicarbonate, phosphate, and protein buffer systems. The bicarbonate buffer system acts the quickest and is the primary extracellular fluid buffer, functioning through the reaction of carbon dioxide, water, and bicarbonate ions.
This document discusses respiratory and kidney regulation of pH and acid-base balance. The respiratory system maintains pH levels by controlling carbon dioxide levels through breathing. The kidneys are the most powerful regulators, excreting acids or bases through processes like secreting hydrogen ions, reabsorbing bicarbonate, and generating new bicarbonate. Acid-base imbalances can be respiratory or metabolic in nature, and both systems work to compensate for disturbances and return pH to normal levels.

Kingdoms of organisms
Early classification of organisms recognized only two kingdoms
(Plants & Animals).
Plants were distinguished as being nonmotile organisms with rigid
cell walls capable of using sunlight as a source of energy.
Animal were recognized for their ability to move & inability to
derive energy directly from sunlight.
Advanced in our knowledge led to major classification changes.
A five kingdom classification system became widely followed and
this division of living things into five kingdoms must be viewed as
a widely-accepted theory.
4. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Prokaryotic organisms
The archaebacteria are one of the two prokaryotic kingdoms, they
live only in very special environment some of them live under
strictly unaerobic conditions, others live in environment with very
high salt concentrations.
The second prokaryotic kingdom now called eubacteria which
include the more commonly known bacteria & the blue-green
cyanobacteria which single – celled organism.
Homeostasis: is maintaining relatively stable internal condition in
organism.
Organisms are classified into five kingdoms members of monera
(bacteria) are prokaryotic organisms in the other four kingdoms
eukaryotic.
5. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Protista consist of many groups that generally unicellular &
have given rise to three primarily multicellular kingdoms.
Monera Prokaryotic Absent Non-photosynthesis in some Polysaccharides, Amino
acids
Protista Eukaryotic Present Present in some Present in some
Fungi Eukaryotic Present Absent Chitin, Other non-
cellulose
polysaccharides
Plantae Eukaryotic Present Present Cellulose, Other
polysaccharides
Animalia Eukaryotic Present Absent Absent
6. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
The Cell Wall
Non all living things have cell walls, most notably animals & many
of the more animal - like protistants.
Bacteria have cell walls containing peptidoglycan. Plant cell have
a variety of chemicals incorporated in their cell walls.
Cellulose is the most common chemical in the plant primary cell
wall.
Some plant cells also have lignin & other chemicals embedded in
their secondary walls.
The cell wall is located outside the plasma membrane
plasmodesmata are connections through which cells
communicate chemically with each other through their thick
walls.
7. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Fungi & many protists have cell walls although they do not
contain cellulose.
Rather a variety of chemicals (chitin for fungi).
Kingdoms of organisms
Early classification of organisms recognizes only two kingdoms.
(Plants & Animals) Advances in our knowledge made possible by
electron microscopy particularly the discovery of the profound
structural differences between prokaryotic & eukaryotic cells, led
to major classification changes. A five-kingdom classification
system that became widely followed was first proposed in 1963.
8. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
The classifications are:
Archaebacteria: A small group of organisms some of them
adapted to extremely hot environment & many producing
methane as a product of metabolism, Nucleic acid sequences of
these organisms show them to be only distantly related to
Eubacteria.
Eubacteria: The vast majority of prokaryotic organism including
the typical bacteria & cyanobacteria (blue- green bacteria), no
well-defined nucleus or nuclear envelope, no any type of
organelle (such as mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum that
requires internal membranes.
9. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Protista: Eukaryotic unicells without plastids or cell walls various
adaptations for locomotions may be present (cilia in one group,
whip-like flagella in another group , pseudopods in the largest
group).
Plantae: Eukaryotic organisms with plastids including various
algae, ferns, conifers & a vast array of flowering plants. Most
plants have non motile life, all Possess chlorophyll are capable of
carrying out photosynthesis, using sunlight.
10. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Animalia
Eukaryotic organisms without plastids, usually possessing a life
stage with at least some locomotor capabilities & developing by
means of an embryonic stage consisting of a hollow ball of cells.
(blastula) No chlorophyll, no cell walls.
The Fungi are eukaryotic organisms with cell walls, reproducing
by means of spores includes molds, yeasts, mushroom etc.
Prokaryotes
In the last century, biologists realized that many of the simple
organisms that constitute the microbial world did not fit well into
either the plant or animal kingdoms.
Subsequent advances in microscopy revealed the prokaryotic cells
to reflect their lack of true nucleus (bacteria). The algae, fungi &
protozoa as well as plant & animal cells are termed eukaryotic
cells.
11. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Bacterial cell envelope
The cell envelope or cell wall lies outside the cytoplasmic
membrane & it is the structure that determines the shape of the
cell & provides the rigidity & strength. Because the cell envelope
makes contact with the environment, its constituents are the
major antigenic determinants of the cell and some of them
contribute directly to the virulence of the organism.
Bacteria can be divided into two groups on the basis of their
reaction in the gram - staining procedure. The wall of g+ bacteria
is seen to be thick & homogenous, sometimes having distinctive
structures or dense layers at the inner & outer surfaces. The inner
surface is always in contact with cytoplasmic membrane. The
envelope of gram - negative cell is marked by the presence of an
outer membrane that is exterior to a very thin rigid layer. This
envelope is only rarely attached to the cytoplasmic membrane.
12. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
Major designations the kingdoms
The original two kingdoms were plantae and Animalia, which
remained the only kingdoms until the middle of the 20th Century.
During the last 40-50 years, those groups have been splintered a
bit - Fungi was split off
from the Plants, Protista removed the single-celled eukaryotes
(and the problems of their often-combined characteristics) and
Monera was made for the prokaryotes. Those five Kingdoms were
considered “the" Kingdoms in most basic biology books, even
though the splintering has continued.
13. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
The latest basic books now recognize a sixth group, the Archaea,
once thought to be odd monera / bacteria but now considered a
fundamentally different group.
Many advanced systems (mostly in the plant and microbe areas)
add a Domain level above the Kingdoms; most commonly, there
are three domains. The Monera and Archaea (seen below as
Kingdoms) are each Domains, with the rest of the Kingdoms in
the Eukaryota Domain.
14. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 1
MONERA
Prokaryotes (no nucleus); always unicellular (single-celled). Bacteria. May
have plant, fungus, or animal characteristics.
ARCHAEA
Prokaryotes; always unicellular. Often adapted to unusual and/or extreme
conditions, such as very hot, very salty, or no-oxygen environments. Have
several different cellular chemistries from Monera.
PROTISTA
Eukaryotes (nucleus in cell); mostly unicellular, or collections of very similar
cells. May have plant, fungus, or animal characteristics.
PLANTAE
Eukaryotes; multicellular; capable of photosynthesis, production of complex
molecules from simple molecules using light.
ANIMALIA
Eukaryotes; multicellular; must obtain complex food molecules from external
source, broken down and absorbed internally. Usually capable of movement.
FUNGI
Eukaryotes; almost all multicellular; must obtain complex food molecules
from external source, absorbed through external surface. Almost never
capable of movement.

The characteristics &
variety of living things
The characteristics of life
23. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 2 2
Biology: is the study of living things, but it has not yet produced a definition of
life it has, however, produced a list of the characteristics of life it has done this
by studying the differences between living & non living things All living things
on earth are characteristics
by
1- Movement , 2- Sensitivity , 3- Reproduction , 4- Respiration , 5-
Feeding 6- Growth , 7- Secretion
These characters define the life:
Metabolism & Enzymes
Metabolism is a word used to describe all the chemical changes within on
organism which are necessary for life. For example, carbon dioxide & water
are metabolites used in the process of photosynthesis.
24. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 2 3
There are two different types of metabolism
1. Catabolism: is process in which complex substances are broken down
into simpler ones, resulting in the release of energy. During respiration, for
example, Glucose sugar is broken down into Carbon dioxide gas & water,
releasing energy for life
2. Anabolism: ls a process which uses energy released during catabolism to
build up complex substances from simpler ones Examples of anabolism
are photosynthesis & all the processes of growth & repair in the bodies of
organisms
Enzymes: Metabolism would occur very slowly or not at all if it were not for
chemicals called enzymes. Enzymes speed up chemical changes inside
organisms without themselves during the changes Each type of enzyme acts
as a catalyst for only one type of chemical changes
25. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 2 4
Biological Classification
Organisms are first divided into very large groups called Kingdoms. most
organisms can be placed in either. The plant kingdoms or the animal
kingdoms. some simple organisms which cannot easily be fitted into either of
these groups can be put together into the protista kingdoms. These large
groups are then gradually broken down into smaller groups, containing fewer
& fewer types of organisms, kingdom dre sub divided into smaller groups,
called phyla (Singular phylum). Each phylum or division is divided into classes,
into the classes are divided into orders, & the orders are divided into families.
Each family is divided into genera (singular genus) & genera are divided into
species. Domain – Kingdom – Phylum – Class – Order – Family – Genus –
Species.

Cell structure and function
The cell is the structural and functional unit of all organisms The
development of this concept began in the seventeenth century with
Robert hook s observations on slices of cork. He noticed that cork was
made up of small units, which called cells. A hundred years later,
the cell theory emerged with three principles:
1-All organisms are composed of one or many cells.
2-The cell is the basic functional unit of living organisms
3-All cells arise from pre-existing cells
29. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 3
Cells vary in organization, size, and function. With respect to internal
organization, there are two major types of cells:
A-Prokaryotic (before uncleus) : has no uncleus ; its genetic material
(DNA) is concentrated in a region called the nucleoid, but no membrane
separates this region from the rest of the cell. The cytoplasm contains
ribosomes, thylakoids only in cyanobacteria that participate in
photosynthesis, and innumerable enzymes organisms with prokaryotic
cells are usually unicellular, small cell size no membranes bound
organelles, and have limited capabilities compared with eukaryotic
organisms.
30. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 4
B-Eukaryotic ( true nucleus): has a true nucleus enclosed by a
membranous nuclear envelope, The entire region between the nucleus
and the plasma membrane bounding the cell is called the cytoplasm.
consists of a semifluid medium called the cytosol, in which are
suspended organelles of specialized form and function, most of them
absent in prokaryotic cells.
. organisms with eukaryotic cells are of two kinds:
1-Unicellular: The unicellular eukaryotic organisms are in the kingdom
protista, which includes organisms with both photosynthetic (algae) and
heterotrophic (amoeba, paramecium)
2-Multicellular: The multicellular eukaryotic organisms (fungi, plants,
and animals)
31. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 5
The principal parts of a cell are:
The cell membrane plasma membrane
o Cytoplasm
o Organelles
o Inclusions
The cell membrane
plasma membrane plays an important part in many aspects of cell
behavior it is responsible for creating and maintaining concentration
gradients of many different types of cellular metabolites.
32. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 6
It is a thin structure that separate one cell from others and from the
external environment .The outer surface of mammalian cells consist of a
unit membrane consist of phospholipids bilayer there are charged and
uncharged lipids in the bilayer there are also protein found in the gap
between the lipid bilayer complex oligosaccharides are often attached
both to the lipids exposed on the outer cell surface to form cerebrosides,
gangliosides and other complex glycolipids and to the proteins to from
glycoprotein. The protein molecules are found as integral proteins some
may extend partially or penetrate completely the phospholipids bilayer
among the fatty acid tail, some integral protein unites form minute
channels thru which some substances could be transported into and out
of the cell other integral proteins carry branching chains of glycoprotein's
which provide receptor sites used to recognize and attached to some
other substances like hormones nutrients and other chemicals some
acts as enzymes
33. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 7
Peripheral proteins
Are loosely attached to the outer or inner surface of the membrane they
normally attached to one of the integral proteins.
Function of cell membrane
1- Encloses the cellular contents & separates from the external
environment.
2- Maintains the homeostasis by controlling the passage of substances
into out of the cell.
3- Maintains the shape.
4-Proivdes receptors for chemicals hormones, enzymes. nutrients &
Antibiotics.
5- involves in cell to cell adhesion.
34. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 8
Cytoplasm: Jelly like substance. of 75-90% water plus solid
components. The inorganic substances enzymes & most carbohydrates
are soluble in water & present as true solution.
The majority of these micromole clues are held suspended in the
cytoplasm as a colloid.
Also organells (small organ) like nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria,
endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, centrioles. Cilia& Golgi apparatus.
35. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 9
Mitochondria
small, spherical irod-shaped or filamentous stracture,consist of
enclosing membrane & an inner membrane which is thrown into folds to
from large internal surface called cristae.The center of the mitochondria
is called the matrix the enzymes involved in generation & releasing
reaction of ATP i.e the respiratory chain enzymes are located in the in
the cristae.ATP is produced in mitochondria by break down of organic i.e
glucose & is sent to other parts of cell for providing energy during
reaction. cells of liver & muscle have a large number of mitochondria
because of their high energy need. The mitochondria matrix has various
enzymes ribosomes, RNA & DNA granules. The plasma membrane is
made of two layers of lipids molecules and proteins. The two layers are
of phospholipids and consist of outer which is predominantly made of
phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelins, and glycolipids The inner later
contains phosphatidylethanolamin, phosphatidylserine and
phosphatidylinositol.
36. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 10
Cholesterol is distributed in both layers. The phospholipids are
organized as bimolecular layer with the nonpolar fatty acids chains in
the middle. The polar regions of the phospholipids are oriented toward
the surfaces of the membrane as a result of their attraction to the polar
water molecules in the extracellular fluid and cytosol.
The lipid bilayer has characteristics of a fluid, like a thin layer of oil
on a water surface. There is considerable possibility of lateral movement
of both membrane lipids and proteins. These features described as fluid
mosaic model of the cell membrane.
Protein molecules are forming large proportion of the cell constituents.
They vary in size, shape and distribution in the membrane. They are
classified into integral, and peripheral Integral proteins are closely
associated with the membrane lipids and cannot be extracted from the
membrane without disruption of the membrane.
37. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 11
Integral proteins have polar amino acid side chains and nonpolar
regions. The Polar Regions are at the surfaces in association with water
molecules, and the nonpolar regions are in the interior in association with
nonpolar fatty acid chains Most of the integral proteins span the entire lipid
bilayer, and are referred to as transmembrane proteins. Some of these
proteins cross the lipids bilayer several times. Peripheral membrane proteins
are located at the membrane surface and they are not associated with
nonpolar region of the lipids bilayer. Some is attached to the membrane
bilipid or glycolipid anchors. Some of the peripheral proteins are anchored to
cytosolic surface and associated with cytoskeletal elements in the cytoplasm
and influence cell shape and motolity. Many of these play important role in
the transmission of signals from cell surface receptors to the intracellular
targets. At some points, sphingomyelins and glycolipids cluster together in
small semi-solid patches termed lipid rafts. These are usually enriched by
anchored proteins (GTP-binding proteins), that move in and out of rafts.
These allow for process such endocytosis and receptor-mediated signaling.
38. Dr.Emad Al-Rashidi Biology Lec 3 12
Glycocalyx: Extracellular portions of plasma proteins are generally
glycosylated. Likewise, the carbohydrate portions of glycilipids are
exposed on the outer face of the plasma membrane. Consequently, the
surface of the cell is covered by a carbohydrate coat known as
Glycocalyx (or cell coat), formed by oligsaccharides of glycolipids and
transmembrane glycoproteins. The glycocalyx protects the cell surface
and serves as carrier of markers for a variety of cell-cell interactions.

Nucleic acids are long polymers of repeating subunits called
nucleotides each nucleotide is made up of three smaller
building blocks :

3- An organic ,nitrogen -— containing molecule called base.
To form the nucleic acid chain , the sugars and phosphate
group making up the nucleotides are linked , a nitrogenous
base protrudes.

How substances move into and out of cells?
-- There are three types of passive transport :
1- Diffusion ,2-osmosis ,3- facilitated diffusion .
1- Diffusion: is the net movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration
to a region of lower concentration.
2- osmosis: is a special from of diffusion in which water molecules move from an
area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration across a differentially
permeable membrane like plasma membrane.
