Morphology

when species are defined on a set of physical characteistics (judging a book by its cover much...smh)

genetic diversity

the genetic variability among organisms; usually referring to individuals of the same species (like humans!@1)

new reasons why no biodiversity is bad (dont say food chain you pleb)

1. loss of medicines and new potential medicines

2. disruptions in carbon cycle (global warming)

taxonomy

The scientific study of how living things are classified (loser)

niche

a place for an animal where it is best fitted

Biogeochemical

the process of chemicals moving from organisms to organisms and biosphere (think cycles)

what do the Domain Archea and bacteria have in common

1. they both have 1 kingdom of the save name

2. THEY ARE BOTH PROKARYOTIC

pathogenic (ewww)

Causing or able to cause disease

autotroph (what + example)

self produces (think automatic)

Endosymbiosis (what + example) (venom)

symbiosis in which one of the symbiotic organisms lives inside the other. mycorrihizae (plant and fungi fuse)

structural diversity

the range of physical shapes and sizes within a habitat or ecosystem (biggg bear tiny bees)

species diversity

variety in an ecosystem + # of selfs in each species

archae are....

thermophiles - live in extreme temperatures

methanogens - microorganisims that produce methane

binomial nomenclature

genus - species

taxonomic ranks (in order)

Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

six kingdoms of life

Archaea, Bacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia

what is bacterias additional outlayer called

capsid

clade

a grouping that includes a common ancestor and all the descendants (living and extinct) of that ancestor

Phylogeny

Evolutionary history of a species

Prokaryote

no membrane, unicellular, first organism,

bacteria shapes

coccus (round) bacillus (rod) spirochete (spiral)

quanity of bacteria shape names

diolo(name) pair - strepto~chain - staphilo~cluster

e coli

many strains many harmless but can cause digestional issues

how are archae classified

environment + genetic make up (i cant take it anymore)

common between protist and archea

they got that same ancestor fam

shigella dysenteriae

common stomach bug (uber contagious)

what type of kingdom has autotrophes, heterotrophes, and parasites (malaria)

protista!!! (plasmodium causes malaria)

giardia lambilia (beaver fever)

common intestinal parasite (they found me) (protist)

Trich

vag std (men can get it to but are assymptomatic) symptomes are itchiness (protist)

good fungi

porphya- nori, toothpaste, medicine

most common place to find protists

waterrr they are super important to the aqautic ecosystem either as hetero or auto

mycellium

is what breaks down + absorbes stuff for growth

hyphae

the indiviudal STRANDS that make the overarching hive mind that is the menace of mycellium (dramatic af description but im very slowkey losing it)

mycorrizahe mnkbnbjjhkjhkkn

fungi gets sugar and nutrients from plants and plant gets stuff for fungi from soil (phosphor)

lichen

The combination of a fungus and algae/cyanobacteria. fungi gives co2 + h20 and algae carbs. these detect most air pollutants

germinate

to begin to grow, come into being

diploid

product from 2 organisms (you)

dikaryotic

2 or more nuclei in a cell (most fungi)

fungi adaptations

extracellular digestion and reproduction being sex/asex or both
