Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Pseudoplasm

👉 Pseudoplasmodia, also known as pseudoplasmodiums or pseudoplasmoedotes, are a type of bacterium found in soil and water bodies that have been contaminated with organic matter. These bacteria can grow rapidly and produce toxins when exposed to these substances. They primarily cause gastrointestinal infections in animals and humans.

Pseudophasmatinae

👉 Pseudoplasmic endosymbiosis is a type of symbiotic relationship in which bacteria acquire genetic material from their host cells, often through a process called conjugation or transduction. This means that the bacterial cell carries part of its own DNA into the host's genome. In contrast to pseudoplasmodial endosymbiosis, where the bacteria acquire genetic material from their host cells through a process like transduction, in this case, the bacterium has acquired the DNA from its

Pseudepistylis

👉 In ecology, a pseudoplasmodium is a type of pseudoplastic alga that has been observed in freshwater systems. These algaes are characterized by their ability to grow in nutrient-poor water and exhibit morphological features that suggest they have some form of symbiosis with other organisms or life forms. The term "pseudoplasmodium" comes from the Latin word for pseudoplastic, which refers to a type of algal growth that is resistant to external stimuli.

pseudoplasmodium

👉 In microbiology, a pseudoplasma is a type of bacterium that is resistant to antibiotics. These bacteria are often found in soil and water bodies, where they can colonize and thrive without any harmful effects on human health. They do not produce large amounts of toxins or enzymes like bacteria, making them difficult to treat with antibiotics. This allows them to survive and grow undetected for longer periods of time, allowing them to continue producing toxins that can harm humans and animals over time.

pseudoplasma

👉 Pseudoplasm is a term used in biology to describe the existence of cells or organisms that lack a nucleus and are surrounded by plasma membrane. These cells are known as "plasmodia" or "pseudoplasmas". They are typically found in aquatic environments where water can be contaminated with parasites, such as Plasmodium falciparum. The presence of these cells is often associated with the existence of malaria, which is a disease caused by the parasite Plas

pseudoplasm

👉 Pseudoplasmic islet, a term used in botany referring to a type of plant that lacks chlorophyll and thus does not produce chloroplasts for photosynthesis.
