- 5. A type of asexual reproduction, where one cell produces two identical daughter cells.
- 6. A preparation of a weakened or dead form of a pathogen that causes an organism to develop immunity against the pathogen.
- 7. Temporarily inactive.
- 9. Proteins that speed up chemical reactions. That can help build up or break down compounds.
Down

- 2. Bacteria develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to kill them.
- 4. The process by which bacteria transfer genetic material to one another through direct contact.
- 6. An infectious microbe consisting of a segment of either DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat.
- 8. medicine that kills bacteria or slows their growth.
