Research the habitat and niche of an organism of your choice that is different from the gray fox. Construct a flow chart that shows the relationships between the different biotic and abiotic factors that make up your organism’s habitat and niche. Use labels to make these relationships clear

With the description of the different cell walls, membranes, and associated proteins set in the students' minds, you now need to introduce them to the idea that the cell wall can also act as a foundation to build things upon. bacterial appendages require a strong foundation that will offer the support needed to move and function in a dynamic world. for example, flagella are long, whiplike protein structures that are used by many gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria for locomotion. in order to function effectively, a flagellum must be firmly anchored to the cell wall. how will you be able to get across the idea that the peptidoglycan cell wall is strong enough to support such a mechanism? with a protein rod that passes through the cell wall and protein rings used to anchor it in the membranes, these basal bodies are the rudimentary biological motors that use atp power to spin the hook and the flagella attached to it. bacterial flagella have a biological motor that spins within the cell wall and is powered by atp. this allows the flagella to spin in a whiplike motion to propel the bacterium.

Listed in the item bank are some key terms and expressions associated with the categories seen in the venn diagram. to find out more information about items, some have more details available when you click on them. drag and drop each item onto the proper area of the diagram. if an item describes more than one category, be sure to place it in the overlapping space. viruses are tiny infectious pathogens that cause many different diseases, such as polio, and the flu. though they are similar to one celled organisms in some ways, in many ways they are very different. use the venn diagram below to show the similarities and differences between viruses and living organisms.

Which of the following statements is true? a. there are more chromosomes in an organism than there are genes. b. there are more genes in an organism that there are chemical bases. c. dna is made of sugar, phosphate, and carbon. d. genes are found in specific locations on a chromosome.
