Plasma membrane

Achaea bacteria

Flagellum

Bacteria Taxi

Fimbriae and Pili

Capsule

Endospores

energy conservation

permeability barrier

Protien anchor

(EU)bacteria

Cell wall

Muerin

help with osmotic stress

NO phospholipids

Lack fayyy acids

Use ether linkage

Cell wall

Have Phytanyl side chain

NO peptidoglycan

Some dont have one only have surface layer

Contains Pseudo-Muuerin

too thin to be seen in normal light

Peritrichous - all around

monotrichous -one

Found in all spiral bacteria

MS ring moves

L,P rings static

c ring turns

Requires flagellar stains

NOT in cocci

Response to chemical or physical gradients

Run and Tumble

Osmotaxis = ionic strength

Flagellum can spin in two directions

Twitching motion driven from this

They're Filamentous surface protien structures

Pilli shorten

Fimbriae imprtant for adhesion

for movement

sex pili genetic exchange

Gelatinous layer composed of polysaccharides

slime layer = viscouse

has polypeptides

Glycocalyx have glycoproteins

all depends on enviroment and nutritinal factors

protect the cell from dehydration

and engulfment

helps adhere together

Dormant survival stage

very resistant

only in gram posative bacteria
