26. The Structure of the Bacterial Surface: Flagella Summary Flagella filamentous protein structures attached to the cell surface that provide swimming movement for most motile bacterial cells. The flagellar filament is rotated by a motor apparatus in the plasma membrane allowing the cell to swim in fluid environments. tactic behavior or motility is the ability to move (swim) in response to environmental stimuli. Chemotaxis: a bacterium can sense the quality and quantity of certain chemicals in its environment and swim towards them (if they are useful nutrients) or away from them (if they are harmful substances). Aerotaxis: bacteria swim toward or away from O 2 motility as a determinant of virulence: e.g. Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Helicobacter, Pseudomonas

31. Endospores are produced as intracellular structures within the cytoplasm of certain bacteria, most notably Bacillus and Clostridium species. Endospore forming bacteria left to right: Clostridium botulinum, Bacillus brevis, Bacillus thuringiensis

34. Endospore formation is NOT a mechanism of reproduction. Rather it is a mechanism for survival in deleterious environments. During the process of spore formation, one vegetative cell develops into one endospore. The sequential steps of endospore formation in a Bacillus species. The process of endospore formation takes about six hours. Eventually the mature endospore is released from its “mother cell” as a free spore
35. Under favorable nutritional and environmental conditions, an endospore germinates into a vegetative cell. A germinating spore
