Monera
1. MONERA
• One-celled organism
• No nucleus
• Prokaryotic
• Smallest and simplest
kind of living thing
• More monerans than
any other kind of
organism
2. Bacteria
• Are microscopic,
living cells
• Live almost
everywhere
• Found in the air, in the
foods you eat and
drink, and on the
surface of things you
touch
• Your skin has over
100,000 bacteria per
square centimenter
• Millions of other
bacteria live in your
body
3. Blue-green bacteria
• Live in moist
environments
• Use sunlight energy to
produce food
• Have chlorophyll
• No chloroplasts
4. Bacteria
• Live in many environments
• Obtain foods in a variety of ways
• 3 kinds of bacteria
• based on shape
13. How do Monerans obtain food?
• Make their own food by photosynthesis
• Use the energy in some chemical
compounds to produce food
• Some cannot produce their own food
(saprobe and parasite)
14. SAPROBE
• Feeds on matter from dead organisms
• Feed on the waste product of organisms
• For example, the bacteria that feeds on
sweat on your skin are saprophobes.
15. Hosts and Parasites
Host: The one getting fed on.
Parasite: The one that hurts the
host on which it feeds.
24. Eubacteria: Cyanobacteria
•Produce food and oxygen for aquatic life
•Too much though, and there are problems.
•Have you ever seen a pond that is covered with smelly,
green, bubbly slime?
•When large amounts of nutrients enter a pond,
cyanobacteria increase in number.
•Eventually the population gets so large that a bloom is
produced.
26. Eubacteria: Cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria use
up available
resources and die.
Other aerobic bacteria
eat dead cyanobacteria
and use up oxygen in
water.
No oxygen in the
water: fish and
other organisms
die.
27. Consumer Bacteria are grouped
by cell wall thickness or thinness.
•Important for
medicine
•Some
medicines will
be more
effective against
the type of
bacteria with
thick walls vs.
thinner.
28. Archaebacteria
Bacteria in this group are the ones that live in
some of the toughest places to live.
The places that they live today are similar to conditions
found on Earth when it was first formed- so scientists
think these may be the oldest types of bacteria!
30. Finding Archaea : The hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, USA, were
among the first places Archaea were discovered. At left is Octopus Spring, and at
right is Obsidian Pool. Each pool has slightly different mineral content,
temperature, salinity, etc., so different pools may contain different communities of
archaeans and other microbes. The biologists pictured above are immersing
microscope slides in the boiling pool onto which some archaeans might be
captured for study.
31. Archaebacteria
• Live in salt water
• Live in acid
• Live deep in the ocean
• At temperatures above
100 degrees
• In muddy swamps
• In intestines of cattle
• Even in you!
32. A. Coccoid: single cells. B. Rod or bacillus. C. Spirilla or spirilloid. D. Coccoid: filamentous
streptococcus. E. Coccoid: colonial staphylococcus. F. Flagellate spirilloid procaryote. G-I:
Examples of Cyanobacteria or "blue-green algae" G. Anabaena, a filamentous blue-green
algal. Note the heterocysts, specialized nitrogen-fixing cells. H. Oscillatoria, a filamentous
and mobile blue-green algal. I. Gleocapsa, a colonial blue-green algal.
