natural selection

Front

the process where organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring

Back

Bacteria cell

Front

Back

How bacteria reproduces asexually

Front

Back

exponential growth

Front

When the resources availability is unlimited in the habitat, the population of an organism living in the habitat grows in an exponential or geometric fashion.

Back

Bacteria

Front

microscopic, single-celled organisms

Back

Prokaryote

Front

a microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles. Prokaryotes include the bacteria and cyanobacteria.

Back

Heredity

Front

the transmission of traits from one generation to the next

Back

Adaptation

Front

a change or the process of change by which an organism or species becomes better suited to its environment.

Back

Eukaryote

Front

A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

Back

Spiral Bacteria

Front

Back

Resistant bacteria

Front

can't be killed by bacteria

Back

exponential growth

Front

Unlimited resources and space

Back

logistic growth

Back

Differences between Prokaryote and Eukaryote

Front

Prokaryote: singular chromosome, no nucleus, small, simple,no membrane, Eukaryote: many chromosomes, nucleus, larger, complex, has a membrane.

Back

Carrying Compacity

Front

the maximum population size that a particular environment can sustain

Back

What effects do antibiotics have on bacteria?

Front

It kills some of them and weakens others.

Back

logistic growth

Front

Population growth that is controlled by limited resources

Back

Non-Resistant bacteria

Front

Can be killed by antibiotics
