It still tumbles to change direction but it occurs less often than in the absence of a
chemical, and runs more creating an overall net motion in one direction ✅Bacterial
movement toward or away from a chemical is often described as a "random biased
walk" due to the fact that __________.
Endospore ✅Clostridium botulinum, which produces a toxin that causes botulism, is a

tetraether monolayer would most likely be found __________.
Cell membranes require a hydrophobic interior and two hydrophilic surfaces to be an
effective barrier between the cell cytoplasm and its external environment.
Membrane lipids are covalently bonded to glycerol.
Membrane thickness is equivalent to a 40-carbon hydrocarbon chain either in the form
of two C20 bilayers, or a single C40 monolayer. ✅Considering the diversity of
membranes and their components in bacterial and archaeal cells, which of the following
statements are correct about membranes in BOTH domains?
Polypeptides are enriched in amino acids like proline that limit their flexibility.
The enzyme reverse DNA gyrase alters the supercoiling in the chromosome.
Membrane lipids are higher molecular weight, more branched, and more saturated.
✅Which of the following are adaptations used by thermophiles to survive in high
temperature environments?
Ftsz localization determines the site of cell wall growth by recruiting pbps for
peptidoglycan synthesis.
