Unit 3

Campylobacter

________ is a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis; often contaminates poultry.

ATP molecules

________ can deliver and release the trapped energy wehre it is needed to do work.

typical bacterial cell

A(n) ________ contains hundreds of millions of protein molecules.

Amino acids

________ can be broken down to provide energy (make ATP) for the cell.

Metabolism

________ is the sum of all anabolic and catabolic reactions that occur in an organism.

ATP

________ contains energy in a form the cell can use for work.

Transport work

________: moving things across plasma membrane, like food in and wastes out.

Enzymes

What are proteins that do a job? Answer with a single words or term.

Glycolysis

What is conversion of glucose (6- C) to two pyruvic acid (3- C) molecules? Answer with a single words or term.

Monomers

What are bonded together at functional groups by a reaction called dehydration synthesis? Answer with a single words or term.

Energy

What is trapped briefly in ATP molecules? Answer with a single words or term.

Oxygen

Usually the term facultative anaerobe refers to bacteria that can switch from aerobic respiration to fermentation. What is toxic to them; air kills them? Answer with a single words or term.

Blood agar

________ differentiates between the two types.

Fermentation

________ occurs in two stages.

Clinical samples

________ may contain dozens of different bacteria; one must isolate pathogen and grow it in a pure culture for successful ID.

dehydration synthesis reaction forms

The ________ peptide bonds between the amino acids.

Anaerobic bacteria

________ do not need O2 to live and grow because they can generate ATP without using O2 (molecular oxygen)

Nitrogen

________: amino acids, nucleotides, and ATP.

Brewers' yeast ferments

________ glucose to ethanol.

Chemical work

________: sythesis of biomolecules like making proteins or copying nucleic acids.

Key difference

________ is that an inorganic molecule other than O2 is final electron acceptor.

ATP synthase

What is an enzyme that joins ADP and phosphate to make ATP molecules? Answer with a single words or term.

chemical energy

The ________ released by burning nutrient molecules like glucose is used to generate ATP molecules.

NADH

What is a key player in ATP production? Answer with a single words or term.

ADP

What is recharged in a single reaction; this takes virtually no time at all? Answer with a single words or term.
