Across
- 1. unorganized layer surrounding a bacterial cell that helps in adhesion and protection.
- 4. of a microorganism to move from one place to another.
- 6. or round-shaped bacteria.
- 7. that lack flagella or other hair-like appendages.
- 9. whip-like structure used by many bacteria for movement.
- 11. outer covering of a bacterial cell that includes structures such as capsules and slime layers.
- 13. LAYER
- 14. or curved rod-shaped bacterium.
- 15. bacteria arranged in chains.
- 17. of rod-shaped bacteria side-by-side, resembling a picket fence.
Down
- 2. POLYSACCHARIDE
- 3. movement of a microorganism towards or away from a stimulus.
- 5. material secreted outside the bacterial cell, often contributing to biofilm formation.
- 8. bacteria that can occur in different shapes and sizes.
