The smallest and most common microorganisms are prokaryotes—unicellular organisms that lack a nucleus.

Classifying Prokaryotes
Classifying Prokaryotes
All prokaryotes were once placed in the Kingdom Monera.
Recently, biologists divided them into two different kingdoms: the Eubacteria and the Archaebacteria.
Add Eu and Archae to your derivational terms

Classifying Prokaryotes
Eubacteria
Eubacteria have a cell wall that protects the cell and determines its shape.
The cell wall of eubacteria contain peptidoglycan.
Eubacteria have a cell membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm.
Some eubacteria have a second membrane that provides added protection.

Classifying Prokaryotes
Eubacteria include organisms that live in a variety of environments, including:
• in fresh and salt water
• on land
• in the human body

Classifying Prokaryotes
Archaebacteria
The cells walls of archaebacteria do not contain peptidoglycan. Archaebacteria have different membrane lipids. In addition, the DNA sequences of key archaebacterial genes are more like those of eukaryotes than those of eubacteria.

Slide 10 of 40
Classifying Prokaryotes
Many archaebacteria live in extreme environments.
• Methanogens live in oxygen-free environments, such as thick mud and animal digestive tracts.
• Other archaebacteria live in salty environments or in hot springs where water temperatures approach the boiling point. Halogenic

Identifying Prokaryotes
What factors are used to identify prokaryotes?
End Show

Slide 12 of 40
Identifying Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes are identified by characteristics such as:
• shape
• the chemical nature of their cell walls
• the way they move
• the way they obtain energy

Identifying Prokaryotes
A fourth shape of prokaryotes are called vibrios.
These are short curved rods. Without proper magnification and resolution these are often termed bacillus or spirillum, but are actually properly called vibrios.

Slide 17 of 40
Identifying Prokaryotes
Cell Walls
Two different types of cell walls are found in eubacteria. A method called gram staining tells them apart.
Gram-positive bacteria have thick cell walls with large amounts of peptidoglycan.
Gram-negative bacteria have thinner cell walls inside an outer lipid layer.
End Show

Slide 18 of 40
Identifying Prokaryotes
Gram-positive vs. Gram negative: why do you care?
Antibiotics work by breaking down the cell wall of gram positive bacteria. Gram negative one are not as affected as their cell wall, so it is important to know what type of bacterial infection one has.
Other drugs may be prescribed for certain gram negative strains- sulfa drugs for example.

Movement
Prokaryotes can be identified by whether they move and how they move.

Metabolic Diversity
Metabolic Diversity
Prokaryotes are divided into two main groups:
• Heterotrophs get their energy by consuming organic molecules made by other organisms.
• Autotrophs make their own food from inorganic molecules.
End Show
19–1 Bacteria
Slide 21 of 40
Metabolic Diversity
Heterotrophs
Prokaryotes that take in organic molecules for both energy and a supply of carbon are called chemoheterotrophs.
Prokaryotes that use sunlight for energy, but take in organic compounds as a carbon source are called photoheterotrophs.
End Show
19–1 Bacteria
Slide 22 of 40
Metabolic Diversity
Autotrophs
Photoautotrophs use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to carbon compounds and oxygen.
Chemoautotrophs perform chemosynthesis. They make organic carbon molecules from carbon dioxide, but do not require light as energy.

Slide 23 of 40
Metabolic Diversity
Releasing Energy
Bacteria need a constant supply of energy, which is released by the processes of cellular respiration or fermentation or both.
End Show
19–1 Bacteria
Slide 24 of 40
Metabolic Diversity
Obligate aerobes require a constant supply of oxygen.
Bacteria that live without oxygen because they may be killed by it are called obligate anaerobes.
Bacteria that can survive with or without oxygen are known as facultative anaerobes.

Growth and Reproduction
Growth and Reproduction
Most prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission.
Some prokaryotes take part in conjugation.
Other prokaryotes produce spores.

Growth and Reproduction
Binary Fission
Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction in which an organism replicates its DNA and divides in half, producing two identical daughter cells.

Growth and Reproduction
Conjugation
During conjugation, a hollow bridge forms between two bacterial cells, and genes move from one cell to the other.
This transfer of genetic information increases genetic diversity in populations of bacteria.

Growth and Reproduction
Spore Formation
In unfavorable growth conditions, many bacteria form spores.
An endospore forms when a bacterium produces a thick internal wall that encloses its DNA and some of its cytoplasm.
Spores can remain dormant for months or years.
Spores allow bacteria to survive harsh conditions.

Importance of Bacteria
Bacteria are vital to the living world.
• Some are producers that capture energy by photosynthesis.
• Others are decomposers that break down the nutrients in dead matter.
• Still other bacteria have human uses.

Decomposers
Bacteria recycle nutrients and maintain equilibrium in the environment.
Bacteria also help in the treatment of sewage.

Nitrogen Fixers
Plants need nitrogen gas to be changed chemically to ammonia or other nitrogen compounds, which certain bacteria produce.
The process of converting nitrogen gas into a form plants can use is known as nitrogen fixation.
Many plants have symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

Human Uses of Bacteria
We depend on bacteria for many things, including:
• foods and beverages
• removal of waste and poisons from water
• mining minerals from the ground
• synthesis of drugs and chemicals via genetic engineering
• production of vitamins in human intestines
