What is the phylum order class family genus and species of BACTERIA?
Bacteria belong to the domain Bacteria. Within this domain, they are classified into multiple phyla such as Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Actinobacteria. These phyla contain various orders, classes, families, genera, and species of bacteria with diverse characteristics and functionalities.
Scientific name for termite?
Order: IsopteraSpecies:As of 1996, about 2,800 termite species are recognized, classified in seven families. These are arranged here in a phylogenetic sequence, from the most basal to the most advanced:Mastotermitidae (1 species, Mastotermes darwiniensis)Hodotermitidae (3 genera, 19 species)HodotermitinaeKalotermitidae (22 genera, 419 species)Termopsidae (5 genera, 20 species)TermopsinaePorotermitinaeStolotermitinaeRhinotermitidae (14 genera, 343 species)Coptotermitinae HolmgrenHeterotermitinae FroggattProrhinoterminae Quennedey & Deligne, 1975Psammotermitinae HolmgrenRhinotermitinae FroggattStylotermitinae Holmgren, K & N, 1917Termitogetoninae HolmgrenSerritermitidae (1 species, Serritermes serrifer)Termitidae (236 genera, 1958 species)Apicotermitinae (42 genera, 208 species)Foraminitermitinae (2 genera, 9 species)Macrotermitinae (13 genera, 362 species)Nasutitermitinae (80 genera, 576 species)Sphaerotermitinae (1 genera, 1 species)Syntermitinae (13 genera, 99 species)Termitinae (90 genera, 760 species)
will there be more species or genera in a kingdom?
There are typically more species than genera in a kingdom. Genera are groups of species that share similar characteristics, and within each genus, there can be multiple species that have evolved from a common ancestor. This hierarchical classification system results in more species than genera within a kingdom.
What is the basis of classification between bacteria and fungi?
Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus and other organelles, while fungi are multicellular organisms that possess a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Additionally, bacteria have a cell wall made of peptidoglycan, while fungi have a cell wall made of chitin. Finally, bacteria reproduce by binary fission, while fungi reproduce through spores.
What taxon is made up of similar genera?
A taxon made up of similar genera is known as a family. It is a higher level of classification in taxonomy that groups together related genera based on shared characteristics. Families contain one or more genera that exhibit close evolutionary relationships.
Are all anaerobic bacterial spore formers?
Not all anaerobic bacteria are spore formers. While some anaerobic bacteria, such as those in the genera Clostridium and Bacillus, are known for their ability to form spores as a survival mechanism in harsh conditions, many other anaerobic bacteria do not produce spores. For example, genera such as Bacteroides and Fusobacterium are anaerobic but do not form spores. Therefore, spore formation is not a universal trait among anaerobic bacteria.
Which bacteria or fungal genera are sources of antibiotics?
streptomyces
What do fungi and bacteria grow from?
fungi and bacteria grow from spores.
What is the difference between spores and vegetative bacteria?
Spores are a dormant, protected form of bacteria that can withstand harsh conditions, while vegetative bacteria are actively growing and reproducing. Spores are highly resistant and can survive for long periods, while vegetative bacteria are more vulnerable to environmental stresses. Spores can germinate and grow into vegetative bacteria when conditions become favorable.
Do bacteria reproduce by spores?
Yes they do
How fungi and bacteria alike?
its spores
What special defenses do spores and capsules have?
Bacteria can form capsules and spores. A capsule is a protective layer around some bacteria. They can be virulent as they can resist the body's defence mechanism. Bacteria can change into bacterial spores when the environmental conditions are unfavourable. In this condition bacteria are inactive. When the environmental conditions become more suitable the bacteria can become active and cause disease. Bacterial spores are extremely resistant and can survive most forms of disinfection and inadequate sterilisation
Where are spores?
Spores are produced by fungi, bacteria, and green plants. Spores in mushrooms are produced on special cells called basidia.
Do spores allow us to see bacteria?
Spores themselves do not allow us to see bacteria, but they are a reproductive structure produced by some bacteria and fungi that can be observed under a microscope. When stained and prepared properly, spores can help in identifying certain bacterial species, particularly those that form endospores, like Bacillus and Clostridium. However, the bacteria themselves are often visible without spores, depending on their size and the methods used for observation. Thus, while spores aid in the identification of specific bacteria, they are not necessary for visualizing bacteria in general.
Where spores produced?
Spores are produced by fungi, bacteria, and green plants. Spores in mushrooms are produced on special cells called basidia.
Is penicillin a Bacteria or not?
penicillin it is a anticiotic producted by molds of peniciullium genera.
The easiest microbial forms to kill or inhibit?
Microbial forms like bacteria and yeast are generally easier to kill or inhibit compared to more resilient forms like spores or viruses. Factors such as cell structure, susceptibility to antimicrobial agents, and environmental conditions can influence the ease of killing or inhibiting different microbial forms.
