Locomotion is important for many Bacteria Which of the following are common forms of motility? Transient Gliding Swimming Random walk Lateral Bacterial cells frequently produce inclusions in the cytoplasm or periplasm. What are functions that these serve? Exporting nutrients to the environment Nutrient reserve Producing membrane bound organelles survival during desiccation or starvation signal transduction to neighboring cells Which of the following cell wall polysaccharides are sensitive to lysozyme? Teichoic acid Chitin Poptdoglycan Cellulose Pseudonmurein

Solution

Question 6) Gliding is the common form of the motility. This allows the bacteria to move over the solid surface.It involves ejection of polysaccharide slime from exit points at both the ends of the body.

Question 7) Nutrient reserve (Inclusion bodies are the reserve material for the later use, they have glycogen which is a polymer that is carbohydrate reserve for carbohydrate and energy)

Question 8) Peptidoglycan (catalyze hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in a peptidoglycan in cell wall of the bacterial cell)
