Across
  1. 2. Have a thin peptidoglycan layer and have an outer lipid membrane. Stains pink/red.*
  2. 5. hairlike structure that acts primarily as an organelle that helps microorganisms move
  3. 6. protein shell which protects viruses from environmental conditions until it gets to the cell.
  4. 8. the process by which one bacterium transfers genetic material to another through direct contact.Creates genetic diversity
  5. 9. reproduction of viruses using a host cell to manufacture more viruses; the viruses then burst out of the cell.
  6. 10. virus that inserts RNA into cells instead of DNA.
  7. 13. A substance that inhibits the growth of or destroys bacteria.
  8. 14. Have cell walls composed of thick layers of peptidoglycan and stains purple.
  9. 15. a virus that infects bacterial cells, but incorporates its DNA into the host cell's DNA to become a non-infectious prophage
  10. 17. It’s a virus that attacks the body's immune system. If this is not treated, it can lead to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). There is currently no effective cure. Once people get this virus, they have it for life.
  11. 19. hair-like structure on the outside of bacteria, typically found in gramnegative bacteria.
  12. 20. Spiral shaped bacteria
Down
  1. 1. Rod shaped bacteria
  2. 3. is a dormant, non-reproductive structure.The primary function is to ensure the survival of a bacterium through periods of environmental stress
  3. 4. A polymer that is composed of polysaccharides and peptide chains that is found especially in bacterial cell walls
  4. 7. A disease causing agent.
  5. 11. help body fight infections and other diseases.
  6. 12. group of viruses that infect bacteria.
  7. 16. Round shaped bacteria
  8. 18. something used to prepare the immune system against a disease unknown to that body.
