Processes of Life Growth Reproduction Responsiveness Metabolism © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 3.1 Examples of types of cells. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Processes of Life Tell Me Why The smallest free-living microbe—the bacterium Mycoplasma—is nonmotile. Why is it alive, even though it cannot move? © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Mycoplasma Mycoplasma can replicate and reproduce itself through binary fission, where one cell divides into two daughter cells. This ability to reproduce is a fundamental characteristic of living organisms. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Mycoplasma Mycoplasma has metabolic processes that allow it to obtain energy and nutrients from its environment. It can metabolize various substances for energy and growth, albeit in a limited manner compared to more complex organisms. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Mycoplasma Mycoplasma maintains internal stability (homeostasis) despite changes in its external environment. It regulates its internal conditions to ensure optimal functioning and survival. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Mycoplasma While Mycoplasma lacks certain features commonly associated with motility, such as flagella or cilia, its ability to survive and thrive in diverse environments showcases its adaptation and resilience as a living organism. Thus, despite being nonmotile, Mycoplasma possesses the essential characteristics necessary for life. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Eukaryotic vs Prokaryotic © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells: An Overview Tell Me Why In 1985, an Israeli scientist discovered a single-celled microbe, Epulopiscium fishelsoni. This organism is visible with the naked eye. Why did the scientist think Epulopiscium was eukaryotic? What discovery revealed that the microbe is really a giant bacterium? © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. External Structures of Bacterial Cells Glycocalyx Gelatinous, sticky substance surrounding the outside of the cell Composed of polysaccharides, polypeptides, or both © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Figure 3.7 Micrographs of basic arrangements of bacterial flagella. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Flagella: Arrangement © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Spirochetes © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Spirochetes Spirochetes are long and slender bacteria, usually only a fraction of a micron in diameter but 5 to 250 microns long. They are tightly coiled, and so look like miniature springs or telephone cords. Members of this group are also unusual among bacteria for the arrangement of axial filaments, which are otherwise similar to bacterial flagella. These filaments run along the outside of the protoplasm, but inside an outer sheath; they enable the bacterium to move by rotating in place. You can see these filaments in the picture of Treponema above, which is the only genus to lack the outer sheath. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Spirochetes The ecological roles of spirochetes are varied; the group includes both aerobic and anaerobic species, and both free-living and parasitic forms. One species, in the genus Cristispira, has only been found growing on the crystalline style in the digestive tract of certain bivalve mollusks. Some species of Treponema live in the rumen of a cow's stomach, where they break down cellulose and other difficult to digest plant polysaccharides for their host. Perhaps the best-known spirochetes are those which cause disease. These include syphilis and Lyme disease, as well as other less well- known ones. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Bacterial Cytoplasmic Membranes Function Control passage of substances into and out of the cell Energy storage Harvest light energy in photosynthetic bacteria Selectively permeable Naturally impermeable to most substances Proteins allow substances to cross membrane Maintain concentration and electrical gradient © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Membrane Permeability © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Cell Permeability 1.The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that allows only selected molecular entities to pass through it. 2.The ease with which a molecule can pass through the cell membrane is known as the permeability of the cell membrane. 3.It also refers to the rate at which the passive diffusion occurs through the cell membrane. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Passive Transport: Special Types of Diffusion © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. 1. Diffusion It is the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration becomes equal in both regions. The two common types of diffusion are: Simple Diffusion: It occurs without the help of any protein molecule. Examples: The movement of water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, ethanol, and urea. Facilitated Diffusion: It is a selective process that occurs with the help of a transmembrane protein molecule. Facilitated diffusion can occur either through a channel protein or through a carrier protein. Examples: Transport of glucose, sodium ions, and potassium ions. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. 2. Osmosis The spontaneous movement of water molecules from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane. It is a selective process that allows only solvent molecules to pass while restricting the solutes. Examples: Taking of nutrients and minerals inside the cell and getting rid of its waste products. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Prokaryotic Cytoplasmic Membranes Tell Me Why E. coli grown in a hypertonic solution turns on a gene to synthesize a protein that transports potassium into the cell. Why? © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. E. Coli matters. When E. coli is grown in a hypertonic (high salt concentration) solution, it experiences osmotic stress. Osmotic stress occurs when there's a concentration gradient across a semipermeable membrane, leading to the movement of water out of the cell to balance the solute concentration outside. To counteract the loss of water and prevent dehydration, E. coli needs to regulate its internal osmotic pressure. One of the mechanisms it employs is to increase the uptake of potassium ions (K⁺) into the cell. Potassium ions are important for maintaining osmotic balance and stabilizing the cell's internal environment. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. E. Coli cont… The gene that synthesizes the protein responsible for transporting potassium ions into the cell is activated in response to osmotic stress. This protein, often a potassium transporter or channel, helps the cell maintain proper osmotic balance by increasing the concentration of potassium ions inside the cell. As a result, water uptake is facilitated, helping to counteract the osmotic stress caused by the hypertonic environment. © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.
