Exotoxins are...

A diverse collection of mostly unicellular eukaryotes.

An antigenic poison or venom of plant or animal origin, especially one produced by or derived from microorganisms and causing disease when present at low concentration in the body.

Proteins that bacterial cells secrete into their environment.

Lipid components of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria that are released when the cell dies or is digested by a defensive cell.

The number of bacterial cells that live in and on our body is greater than the number of eukaryotic cells that make up the body. Why aren't we aware of these trillion of cells?

Because nobody told me about it.

Due to a member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms that have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucleus, including some that can cause disease.

Like a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes. However, unlike prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells have: a membrane-bound nucleus. Numerous membrane-bound organelles (including the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria).

We cant sense our own eukaryotic cells individually, and bacterial cells are much smaller than that. Also, our microbiota are adapted for coexisting with us.

As different as bacteria and archaea are, both groups are characterized by __________ cells, which lack nuclei and other membrane-enclosed organelles.
