Across
- 3. a hair or hairlike structure.
- 4. organism requiring the presence of air or free oxygen for life
- 5. no need for sexual organs
- 7. ubiquitous one-celled organisms, spherical, spiral, or rod-shaped and appearing singly or in chains,comprising the Schizomycota, a phylum of the kingdom Monera (in some classification systems the plantclass Schizomycetes), various species of which are involved in fermentation, putrefaction, infectiousdiseases, or nitrogen fixation.
- 9. any cellular organism that has no nuclear membrane, no organelles in the cytoplasm except ribosomes,and has its genetic material in the form of single continuous strands forming coils or loops, characteristicof all organisms in the kingdom Monera, as the bacteria and blue-green algae.
- 11. large group of chemical substances, produced by various microorganism, used in treatment of infectious disease
Down
- 1. long, lashlike appendage serving as an organ of locomotion in protozoa, sperm cells, etc.
- 2. A polymer found in the cell walls of prokaryotes that consists of polysaccharide and peptide chains in astrong molecular network
- 5. any organism capable of self-nourishment by using inorganic materials as a source of nutrients and using photosynthesis or chemosynthesis as a source of energy, as most plants and certain bacteria andprotists.
- 6. organism living in the absence of air or free oxygen
- 8. a small circle of bacterial DNA that is independent of the main bacterial chromosome. Plasmids oftencontain genes for drug resistances and can be transmitted between bacteria of the same and differentspecies: used in genetic engineering
- 10. fission fission into two organisms approximately equal in size.
