Eukaryotic Cells
Prokaryotic Cells
are viruses acellular or cellular
acellular
list the 3 possible shapes of bacteria
peptidoglycan
a glycoprotein target for penicillin + antibiotics
binary fission
- reproduce their DNA and split into 2 daughter cells
nucleoid
contains the genetic material of bacteria
define infectious disease
tissue damage
how does infectious disease arise
naked virus
surrounded by capsid
enveloped virus
naked virus + outer membrane of previous host cell
list the 4 outcomes of viruses
Lytic infection
virus reproduces in host cell and kills on release eg inluenza
Chronic Infection
virus ‘buds’ off of the host cell and continues to release until host cell dies eg Hep C
