Halobacteria scientific name?
Halobacteria belong to the phylum Euryarchaeota and the class Halobacteria. Some common species within this group include Haloferax volcanii and Halobacterium salinarum.
Are halobacteria eukaryotic?
No they are not eukariyotic.They are prokariyotic organisms.
Do halobacteria reproduce asexually?
yes hey do :P
What kingdom are halobacteria in?
archaebacteriaArcheabacteria.
How does halobacteria protect itself from destruction by UV light?
halobacteria produces salt and chloride layer on top which shortens the UV wavelength protecting itself from UV light. that's why they grow fantastically on Mars.
What is an archaerhodopsin?
An archaerodopsin is any of a group of proteins, isolated from halobacteria, which are light-driven proton pumps.
What are three examples of prokaryotic organisms?
Yeast, Halobacteria and Aeropyrum pernix are three prokaryotic organisms.
What do halobacteria eat?
Halobacteria are photoheterotrophic organisms, meaning that they use light for energy, but can't use carbon dioxide as their sole carbon source. Therefore, they use other organic compounds from the environment (such as carbohydrates, alcohols, or fatty acids) for their carbon requirements.
Do you draw anerobic or aerobic blood cultures first?
aerobic
Which photosynthetic pigment is found in bacteria but is lacking in all other photosynthetic organisms?
Another important photosynthetic bacterial group-Halobacteria thrive in very salty environments, such as the Dead Sea and the Great Salt Lake. Halobacteria are unique in that they perform photosynthesis without chlorophyll. Instead, their photosynthetic pigments are bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin. These pigments are similar to sensory rhodopsin, the pigment used by humans and other animals for vision. Bacteriorhodopsin and halorhodopsin are embedded in the cell membranes of halobacteria and each pigment consists of retinal, a vitamin-A derivative, bound to a protein. Irradiation of these pigments causes a structural change in their retinal. This is referred to as photoisomerization. Retinal photoisomerization leads to the synthesis of ATP. Halobacteria have two additional rhodopsins, sensory rhodopsin-I and sensory rhodopsin-II. These compounds regulate phototaxis, the directional movement in response to light.
What type of activity is running a 5-mile race?
AEROBIC
What happens in glycolisis?
Glucose is converted into pyruvate.It is common to aerobic and non aerobic erspiration.Glucose is splited and converted into pyruvate..It is common to aerobic and non aerobic respiration.
