MICR221 TESTED QUESTIONS WITH
ANSWERS ALL CORRECT

what transport system traps substrate through the movement of phosphate through a
cascade complex - Answer-phosphotransferase

what transport family uses ATP to move substrate in and out of the cell - Answer-ATP
binding casette family

why can bacteria that passively diffuse out compete bacteria that actively diffuse in
certain environements - Answer-while active bacteria have to split ATP into growing and
consuming nutrients, bacteria that diffuse can just put all there ATP toward growing

which machinery is nessacery in every cell: cell wall, collagen, a concentration gradient
- Answer-a PMF/concentration gradient

why is the ATP synthase molecule sisnsitive to oligomyocin - Answer-because it blocks
the proton channels, preventing ATP to be made

what subunit of ATP synthase rotates - Answer-the central stalk

which direction does the central subunit go to pump protons to create a concentration
gradient - Answer-left, to the right generates ATP

how many ATP is synthesised from 1 , 360 rotation of ATP synthatse - Answer-3

what does a division of a cocci cell in 1 direction form - Answer-chains, in multiple
directions is clusters

do rods or cocci have more surface area - Answer-rods

define exogenous - Answer-needs an outside resource as the terminal electron in the
respiration process
(anaerobes)

list the names of bacteria at each temperature going from coldest to hottest - Answer-
psychophiles, phycotolerant, mesophile, thermophile, hyperthermophile

what cellular component determines what temperature bacteria can survive in - Answer-
heat stability of the proteins

, what is the prefix for an organism that uses chemicals as an energy source, uses an
inorganic electron source and an inorganic carbon source - Answer-photolithoautophiles

define complex vs defined media - Answer-complex media is easy to prepare and will
grow most microbes while defined media has specific ingredients & components

what is enriched media - Answer-enriched is generally encouraging media (uses yeast)
to provide precursor metabolites

what is enrichment media - Answer-specifically encouraging of 1 microbe on the plate
(used to give salmonella in a faecal sample full of gut microbes)

what media type is blood agar - Answer-differential and enriched; some microbes react
with blood to change pH + blood has nutrients lots of bacteria can benefit from

what is the difference between alpha and beta haemolysis - Answer-alpha is partial lysis
of the RBC while beta is total lysis

what media type hektoan agar - Answer-differential (production of H2S causes black
colonies) and selective (inhibuts G+ and non-enteric G-)

when do primary vs secondary metabolites grow - Answer-primary = exponential phase
secondary = stationary phase (held here for metabolite harvesting in a chemostat)

what is a disadvantage of viable microbe growth - Answer-viable microbial growth is
when you culture and count the colonies which takes a long time

What are the 2 methods of direct microbial growth - Answer-using a microscope to
count all cells
measuring the optical density of a sample

what are the advantages of direct microbial growth - Answer-can get estimated results
quickly

What are the disadvantages of direct micr growth - Answer-can't tell difference between
dead and alive cells so the final count can only be an estimate

what is the permeability of the coat and cortex of an endospore - Answer-Cortex is
permeable and coat is impermeable

what physical characteristics determine the resistance of an endospore - Answer-coat
and inner membrane

what are the chemical characteristics of endospore resistance - Answer-low water
content (15%), lower pH, lattice structure to hold DNA stable (lattice also helps with heat
stability)
