  1. 1. Naming an organism with its genus and species name.
  2. 2. A virus enters a cell, hijacks the host cell replication system, makes copies of itself causing the cell to burst to releasing more viruses
  3. 3. a temporary union of two organisms for the purpose of DNA transfer
  4. 4. A non-cellular infectious agent that has two characteristics: (1) It has genetic material (DNA or RNA) inside a protective protein coat. (2) It cannot reproduce on its own; it must infect a living cell.
  5. 5. A thick internal wall (made of several hard layers), produced by the bacterium, that encloses its DNA and other essential parts.
  6. 6. The transfer of a DNA segment from a nonfunctional donor cell to that of a functional recipient cell.
  7. 8. a organism that feeds on dead matter
  8. 9. A weakened or inactive version of a pathogen that stimulates the body's production of antibodies that aid in destroying the pathogen.
