Question

2) Explain how reproduction by baeocyte formation occurs (note: this is a type of multiple fission).

3) Describe reproduction by budding. How does budding differ from binary fission?

4) Describe how bacteria in the genus Streptomyces reproduce.

5) What are the two components of the bacterial cell cycle?

6) Describe the steps in the cell cycle of an individual bacterium that reproduces by binary fission. (If you use drawings in your answer, be sure to label them.)

7) What is the name of the cross wall that forms between two daughter cells during cell division?

Septum

8) FtsZ has multiple roles in the process of cell division. What are they?

9) What is the function of the cell division proteins FtsA?

10) What Fts proteins synthesize the peptidoglycan in the cell septum during division?

11) FtsK is an essential protein in many bacteria. However, in Escherichia aggie mutants that make a mutant FtsK protein with decreased activity are viable, but approximately 0.1% of the cells in the population do not have a chromosome. Explain why reduced FtsK activity causes this phenotype.

Explanation / Answer

2...he reproductive stages of Dermocarpella gardneri and D. stellata, which have been reported only once, are described. Formation of baeocytes occurs by cellular divisions that are parallel to the substratum, followed by a series of anticlinal radial divisions. In some cases in D. gardneri, the superior cell, resulting from the first division parallel to the substratum, is liberated prior to radial divisions, and these probably represent the
