Why don't cyanobacteria and bacteria reproduce by mitosis?
The reason bacteria do not reproduce by mitosis is because bacteria do not contain chromosomes. There are numerous types of bacteria.
How do your white blood cells disarm foreign bacteria?
The WBC's (White Blood Cells) enter the area with the bacteria. When the reach, they give off antibodies, which then go and attach to the bacteria. This stops the bacteria. Then the macrophages, or the largest WBC's devour the bacteria along with the antibodies. A chemical in the macrophage causes the bacteria to dissolve.
How does bacteria benefit humans?
Bacteria are important in the formation of certain foods. They are also used in mining and bioremediation (using bacteria to clean up the environment). In addition, bacteria that colonize different places in your body out compete other bacteria that may be harmful.
Where bacteria live?
Bacteria live any place you can think of. (Everywhere.)
Are bacteria larger than viruses?
no bacteria is larger than viruses
What is the difference between thermophilic and thermoduric bacteria?
Thermophilic bacteria have growth temperatures that range from 45C to 85C, with an optimum temperature of about 60C. Thermoduric organisms can survive at extreme temperatures, e.g. pasteurization, but cannot grow.
What is the optimum temperature of enzymes of thermophilic bacteria?
The optimum temperature for enzymes of thermophilic bacteria is typically around 70-80°C. These enzymes have evolved to function best at high temperatures, allowing the bacteria to thrive in extreme environments such as hot springs and deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
What Temperature required for growth of thermophilic bacteria is?
Thermophiles can grow at 55oC or higher, optimum often between 55 and 65oC. A few thermophile can grow at 90oC or above and some have maxima above 100oC. Procaryotes that have growth optim between 80oC and about 113oC are called hyperthermophiles. They usually do not grow well below 55oC.
What has the author P Bos written?
P Bos has written: 'The use of moderately thermophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria in the desulfurization of high sulfur coals'
Will unopened baby food go bad if it gets hot?
It can. Thermophilic bacteria are not necessarily destroyed in the canning process, so hot ambient temperatures could allow them to grow.
What has the author S N Rajagopal written?
S. N. Rajagopal has written: 'Development of bacteriophage inhibitory bulk starter medium for the cultivation of thermophilic lactic acid bacteria' -- subject(s): Lactic acid bacteria, Bacterial starter cultures
Is it possible for thermophilic organisms to induce infections in warmblooded animals?
Is it possible for thermophilic prganisms to induce infections in warm blooded animals
What does thermophilic mean?
"Philic" means "strongly attracted to or strong affinity for something".Thermophilic, would thus mean, a strong affinity for heat.
What is the effect of temperature on biomass in activated sludge basin?
There can be several impacts:Bacteria can be more active depending on what their optimal temperature isThe bacteria species can shift between thermophilc and non- thermophilic typesOxygen transfer and DO levels can change impacting bacteria qualityFloc settling can be impacted
Does heating yogurt kill the good bacteria?
It can--if you heat it enough. But for yogurt, it really depends on the type of yogurt - mesophiic or thermophiic. With thermophlic bacteria, the dairy liquid is heated to as high as 125 degrees F to allow the bacteria to multiply. Mesophilic bacteria multiply well at room temperature - around 72 degrees F, so the higher thermophilic temperatures would tend to kill them off. Most of the commercially available yogurts found in the USA are thermophilic where mesphilic yogurts are available overseas. Examples of mesohhilic yogurts - Villi, Piima, and Matsoi.
How did Taq DNA polymerase acquire its name?
The Taq name is a shortened for Thermophilus aquaticus, a thermophilic bacteria that is the source of the particular DNA polymerase enzyme. The enzyme heat resistant property is desired because it could withstand the high temperature during the PCR process. -Kaitlin The Taq name is a shortened for Thermophilus aquaticus, a thermophilic bacteria that is the source of the particular DNA polymerase enzyme.

What are 2 examples of ancient bacteria?
Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are ancient bacteria that played a key role in the oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere through photosynthesis. Thermotoga maritima is a thermophilic bacterium that thrives in high-temperature environments, representing a lineage of ancient bacteria that adapted to extreme conditions early in Earth's history.
