True

Spirochetes are able to move due to ________.

a periplasmic flagellum

The _____ stain is used to stain and differentiate Mycobacterium and Nocardia from other bacteria.

The two functions of bacterial appendages are

attachment and motility

If bacteria living in salty seawater were displaced to a freshwater environment, the cell structure that would prevent the cells from rupturing is the ________.

cell wall

Bacterial cells could have any of the following appendages except _____.

cilia

bacteria shapes

coccus (round), bacillus (rod), or spiral (spirochete)

all bacteria contain

The cell _______ can be composed of three layers: the cytoplasmic membrane, the cell wall, and the outer membrane.

envelope

Two major structures that allow bacteria to adhere to surfaces are _______ and _______.

fimbrae; capsules

The short, numerous appendages used by some bacterial cells for adhering to surfaces are called _____.

fimbriae

A bacterial cell exhibiting chemotaxis probably has _____.

flagella

What are the external structures of bacteria

glycocalyces, flagella, fimbriae, pili

"eu"

good

Lipopolysaccharide is an important cell wall component of _____.

gram-negative bacteria

Halobacterium salinarium lives in and requires salt. This is an example of an archaeabacterium described as a(n) _______.

halophile

Chemical analysis of a bacterial cell structure detects calcium and dipicolinic acid. What is the identity of this structure?

Endospore

Which of the following species of bacteria is not closely related to the others?

Escherichia coli

Both gram-positive and gram-negative cells have outer membranes.

False

Cellular organisms without a true nucleus include bacteria and viruses.

False

Gram-negative bacteria do not have peptidoglycan in their cell walls.

False

If during the Gram stain procedure, the bacterial cells were viewed immediately after crystal violet was applied, gram-positive cells would be purple but gram-negative cells would be colorless.

False

Iodine is the decolorizer in the Gram stain.

False

The gram-positive cell wall is considered stronger than that of gram-negative cells since its hydrophobic outer membrane contains an endotoxin.

False

The slime layer provides bacteria greater pathogenicity as compared to the capsule.

False

gram positive bacteria

What three components comprise the flagellum, extending from the cytoplasm to the exterior of the cell?

Basal body, hook, filament

_____ Manual of Systematic Bacteriology is a manual of bacterial descriptions and classifications.
