identify major procaryotic cell structures in a drawing or photomicrograph
describe the various sizes, shapes, and cellular arrangements exhibited by
procaryotes
describe the bacterial plasma membrane and the limited internal membrane structures
found in procaryotes
describe the appearance, composition, and function of the various internal
structures found in procaryotic organisms (such as inclusion bodies, ribosomes,
and the nucleoid)
compare the structure of gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial cell walls
and explain how the differences between the two contribute to their Gram reaction
describe external structures such as capsules, fimbriae and flagelladiagram and describe the various arrangements of bacterial flagella
describe how bacteria use their locomotive ability to swim toward chemical
attractants and away from chemical repellents
describe the production of the bacterial endospore and how it enables endospore-forming
bacteria to survive harsh environmental conditions and renew growth when the
environment becomes conducive to growth
