1. what structure controls the cell’s activities?
2. what is the function of ribosomes?
3. what is the function of the cell membrane?
4. what is the watery environment that the dna and ribosomes float within?
5. bacteria cells can come in different shapes, some of them even form long chains. streptococcus is a bacterium that is circular and form chains. the chains can be any number in length.

staphylococcus is a bacterium that is also circular but occurs in clumps. draw how you would imagine staphylococcus would appear.

Explanation:

3. Salmonella is often associated with food poisoning.
4. Pili help bacteria cells stick to surfaces.
5. Yogurt and cheese are made with the help of bacteria.
6. Decompose means to break down into simpler substances.
7. Flagella help bacteria cells move.
8. Archaebacteria live in extreme environments.
9. Common bacteria belong to the Kingdom Monera.
10. In a cell, the nucleus (in eukaryotes) or nucleoid (in prokaryotes) controls activities. In bacteria (prokaryotes), it's the nucleoid.
11. Ribosomes are sites of protein synthesis.
12. The cell membrane controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
