Luis pasteur in 1861 while Biogenesis, spontaneous generation
working for the wine industry to
improve the shelf life of wine,
proved ___by disproving ___using
a unique vessel that would allow
air to enter but trap dust and
dirt
Peptidoglycan is made up of which Alternating series of glycan chains (NAM and NAG), Tetrapeptide
of the following? chain
Up until the second half of the spontaneous generation
19th century, many scientists
believed that life could arise
spontaneously from nonliving
matter By a process known as
Leeuwenhoek's discovery cell theory
marked the beginning of

generation was finally introduced
by a German Scientist Rudolf
Virchow
introduced the concept of

food, and cause animal diseases,
___ used a chemical disinfectant
(carbolic acid) to prevent
surgical wound infections

prokaryotes
Prokaryote =
"prenucleus"
Bacteria No membrane-bound nucleus
No other membrane-bound
organelles DNA in nucleoid
Most have specific shapes (rod, spherical, spiral)
Rigid cell wall contains peptidoglycan (unique
to bacteria) Multiply via binary fission
Many move using flagella
Eukaryotes = "true nucleus"
Membrane-bound nucleus and other
organelles More complex than
Eukarya
