Across
- 1. These organisms are associated with volcanic activities and they can survive in extremely high temperatures
- 5. This is when a cell engulfs a substance
- 6. Moves from a high to low concentration across the cell membrane, also known as passive transport
- 7. When a cell is “drinking” a substance
- 9. This microbe grows slowly in the cold and likes temperatures between 15-30C
- 12. These organisms are poisoned by oxygen
- 13. These organisms thrive in acidic environments
- 15. This is a type of anaerobe that can use oxygen but doesn’t require it
- 17. Derive nutrients from host but harms the host
- 19. This is a cold loving microbe
- 21. An organism that gets carbon from CO2 and can make their own food
- 23. Organisms that grow best at a higher CO2 amount than normal
- 24. These are the “middle” microbes that like 37C, these are also the majority of medically significant organisms
- 25. These organisms require oxygen
Down
- 2. Any nutrient that is required in small quantities
- 3. These organisms thrive is basic environments
- 4. Any nutrient that is needed in large quantities
- 8. Contains carbon and hydrogen bonds
- 10. Moves from the side with more water, or hypotonic, to the side with less water, or hypertonic. Also known as Diffusion of water
- 11. An organism that obtains its carbon from organic molecules
- 13. The type of transport required to move nutrients from a low concentration to a high concentration
- 14. These organisms exist under very high pressure
- 16. These organisms can survive is higher temperatures
- 18. Contains combinations of atoms other than carbon and hydrogen
- 20. When a cell is “eating” a substance
- 22. These organisms prefer higher salt concentrations
