Question 1: isotonic solution
Answer:
equal balance between solute concentration and water moves in and out of cell at equal rates
Question 2: Pasteur
Answer:
disproved spontaneous generation; used swan-necked flasks and let air in but not microbes
Question 3: Lister
Answer:
First to use disinfectants in surgical procedures
- clean instruments, patients, etc.
Question 4: active transport (bacterial cell)
Answer:
cell spends energy in form of ATP

Answer:
pasteur
Question 7: Types of Microorganisms
Answer:
prokaryotes, eukaryotes, viruses(smallest)
Question 8: osmosis
Answer:
movement of water across a membrane (can move accross with no protein, but sometimes special protein is needed)
Question 9: Glycocalyces
Answer:
jelly like
- composed of polysaccharides and polypeptides
- allow bacteria to stick together (biofilm)
Question 10: staining process step 4
Answer:
second stain with safranin
Question 11: diffusion
Answer:
something crosses membrane (will move from area of higher concentration to area of lower concentration)
Question 12: facilitated diffusion
Answer:
helps molecules pass through membrane gets assistance from protein
