Acellular pathogens Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

1. What determines if a bacterial cell is Gram-positive or Gram-negative? Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by a thin cell wall, while gram-positive bacteria lack a cell wall. 2. In this lab, both viruses and prions were introduced as acellular organisms. Do some research and describe one other type of acellular organism. What characteristics about this organism classify it as acellular? Another example of an acellular organism would be viroids. Viroids are small, single- stranded, cir...
