    ANALYSIS OF BACTERIA GROWTH Abstract Bacteria can be found everywhere on the earth. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus‚ mitochondria‚ and chloroplasts and are surrounded by a cell wall containing a peptidoglycan layer. They are defined by their small size and wide range of shapes. In this experiment we separated organisms in a mixed culture to study the colony morphology and physical characteristics and determine which organism was present in higher numbers‚ as determined

    Microorganisms can be prokaryotic—the bacteria or eukaryotic—the algae‚ protozoa or fungi. While viruses are acellular they are also studied in the scope of microbiology because they are small and because they infect cells. While most bacterial are unicellular they can also exist in colonial or multicellular forms. In this laboratory exercise you will examine the ubiquity and diversity of various microbes that are present in the environment or inhabit the human body. Most bacteria that inhabit the body are

    Bacteria and Archaea Bacteria and Archaea All single-celled organisms in the Bacteria and Archaea domains are referred to as prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are organisms whose genetic material is not contained within a nuclear envelop. These cells are profoundly important to the environment‚ medicine‚ and industry. (Postlethwait & Hopson‚ 2010‚ p. 196) Bacteria and Archaea are similar in shape‚ size‚ and appearance. They are both found occurring as rods (bacilli)‚ spheres (cocci)
