Across
  1. 3. Bacteria, Archaea, Protozoa,Fungi,Helminths, Algae, Viruses, Prions
  2. 5. Delivers the correct amino acids for a protein assembly and behaves almost like an enzyme
  3. 8. The first of observe cells under microscope
  4. 10. An energy storage molecule
  5. 12. Found in the cell walls of bacteria that contribute to their disease-causing potential like in TB and leprosy (mycolic acid)
  6. 14. The belief that living things arise only from other living things of the same kind
  7. 18. This use of microbes clean up human-created contamination
  8. 19. Single-Celled or Multicellular and has a nucleus
  9. 23. A major structural component of ribosomes
  10. 24. This is a historical use of microbes to treat wounds and lesions
  11. 25. Smaller than prokaryotes, infectious proteins, little is known about them ie. mad cow, kuru, scrapie
  12. 26. Studied the role of microorganisms in fermentation, heavily involved in vaccine development and developed pasteurization
  13. 27. What is a type of fungi used in bread and alcohol production that makes use of microbes.
  14. 28. a specialized area of biology that deals with mostly living things too small seen without magnification
  15. 29. Bigger than Acellular microorganisms and include Eukaryotes, Bacterium/Archaeon
  16. 30. Important storage lipid and is composed of a glycerol bound to three fatty acids
Down
  1. 1. Complex compounds found in cell membranes and as animal hormones
  2. 2. Defines bacteria and archaea and has NO nucleus
  3. 4. Describes the state of a protein when it's native state is disrupted through heat, acid, alcohol, and some disinfectants
  4. 6. Polymers composed of 50 amino acid monomers at the minimum
  5. 7. Small simple sugars that makeup bigger ones (polysaccharides)
  6. 9. Provides the info for the order and type of amino acids in a protein
  7. 11. Polymers composed of the monomers glycerol and fatty acids
  8. 13. Small and includes Prions and Viruses
  9. 15. Microbes that cause disease
  10. 16. A product of photosynthesis
  11. 17. Smaller than Prokaryotes, needs to infect cells to propagate, composed of a small about of hereditary material ie. Covid-19, Flu
  12. 20. Large polymers composed of smaller units called monomers
  13. 21. State The functional three-dimensional form of a protein
  14. 22. What reproduces rapidly, grown quickly in large populations, cannot be seen directly, viewed through microscopes and are analyzed through measures of biochemistry?
