Text: Life the Science of Biology 10th ed. Vol 2 Evolution, Diversity and Ecology
Chapter 26
Exclude The nucleotide sequence of prokaryotes reveal their evolutionary
relationships pg 528 and pg 529 and 530.
Include Section 26.2 Why are prokaryotes so diverse and abundant? pg 530 your
text uses accepted classification systems derived using DNA sequence data eight
bacterial groups (phyla are described) and two Archaea phyla are described.

2. Explain what these similarities tell us about the relationship between living
organisms.
4. Describe the ways in which prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells.
7. Compare the three domains of life based on: membrane enclosed nucleus,
membrane enclosed organelles, peptidoglycan in cell wall, membrane lipids,
ribosomes.
9. Explain the convention for writing the names of three domains and the
convention used referring to members of the domain.

12.List the characteristics were used before DNA sequencing technology to
classify prokaryotes, highlight the most common character used.
15.Describe the Gram stain technique and explain why the outcome is
dependent on the peptidoglycan layer.
16. Summarise the character states of the phenotypes shape and cell
arrangement exhibited by bacteria.
23.Define the term biofilm and describe how they are formed. Explain how
biofilm formation benefits the prokaryotic organisms.
