  1. 3. - cannot grow in the presence of oxygen.
  2. 5. - One of the two cycles of viral reproduction, the other being the lytic cycle.
  3. 9. - Depends on aerobic respiration and uses oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor.
  4. 11. - A heterotroph is an organism that cannot produce its own food, instead taking nutrition from other sources of organic carbon, mainly plant or animal matter.
  5. 13. - One of the two cycles of viral reproduction, the other being the lysogenic cycle.
  6. 15. - A microscopic single-celled organism
  7. 17. - Surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells.
  8. 18. - Microorganisms that are similar to bacteria in size and simplicity of structure but radically different in molecular organization.

  1. 1. - The injection machinery is responsible for recognizing and puncturing the bacterial host and transferring the viral genome into the host during infection.
  2. 2. - A bacterium found mainly in vertebrates' intestines and the soil.
  3. 4. - An organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals.
  4. 6. - An organism causing disease to its host.
  5. 7. - A protein shell that surrounds and protects the viral genome.
  6. 8. - Medicines that fight bacterial infections in people and animals.
  7. 10. - Any process that removes, kills, or deactivates all forms of life.
  8. 12. - Macromolecule, a polysaccharide, consisting of sugars and amino acids that forms a mesh-like layer outside the plasma membrane.
  9. 14. - Found in stagnant water and sometimes causing disease.
  10. 16. - A preparation that is used to stimulate the body's immune response against diseases.
  11. 20. - A virus that inserts a DNA copy of its RNA genome into the DNA of a host cell that it invades.
