Bacteria

Lead your biology class on a cell-sized adventure! Emerging scientists construct models of prokaryotes, then design an experiment to properly grow a bacterial culture. They conclude the activity by viewing the culture under a microscope....

They're everywhere! They're everywhere! Prokaryotes cover the Earth! Biology buffs survey the microscopic world of bacteria, including their general structure, metabolism, commercial uses, and diseases caused by pathogenic varieties....

Compare and contrast eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses with a chart and a Venn diagram. Beginning microbiologists consider motility, reproductive ability, DNA content, and the presence of organelles. They write short answers to...

A concise, yet comprehensive note-taking guide is provided by this collection of slides. Using the bullet-point format, the different types, shapes, and characteristics of bacteria are listed. This resource would be of great value as an...

New species of Bacteria are still being discovered.  These Archaebacteria and Eubacteria are described, and examples of the main sub-groups are included along with some diagrams about reproduction, nutrition, and effects.

Take young biologists back to the beginning of life on Earth with this presentation on bacteria. Examining the different classifications of bacteria, this presentation introduces young scientists to the concepts of autotrophs and...

The first slide lists the six kingdoms in the biological hierarchy, but the remaining 10 slides cover characteristics of archaebacteria and eubacteria. Topics include how energy is obtained, arrangement, and shape. This brief, but...

Although these slides are text rich, the summaries of prokaryote characteristics will be useful. There are diagrams of preferred cell conditions and your students will find all the basic definitions of structure and functions...

There's archaea in my primordial soup! Viewers watch a video that explains what an archaea is, why it took us so long to find them, how they are different from eucaryota and bacteria, and the interesting discoveries about their...

This tutorial gives an overview of prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) along with an explanation of structural features of prokaryotic cells.
