example of eukaryotes
|
fungi
protozoa algae plants animals |
|
what are the characteristic of eukaryotic cells?
|
-larger
-more complex - all contains nucleus and other organelles |
|
what are the characteristic of the cell wall of eukaryotic cells?
|
-rigid but simpler
-variable make up -provide protection |
|
what are the characteristic of the euk. plasma membrane?
|
-fluid mosaic model
-contain sterols for strenght and carbohydrated as receptor -selective permeable |
|
what are the characteristics of the cytoplasm?
|
- everything inside the plasma membrane except the nucleus
- has a liquid portion called cytosol |
|
what are the characteristics of the cytoskeleton?
|
-a major component of cytoplasm
- a network of proteins filaments and microtubules -control cell shape, cell movement, intracellular transport |
|
what are the characteristics of the ribosomes?
|
-not an organelle
-attached to the rough ER or free in the cytoplasm -made in the nucleolus -site for proteins synthesis -80s for eukaryotes -70s for prokaryotes and found only in chloropasts and mitochondria |
|
what are the characteristics of an organelle?
|
-membrane bounded intracellular structure
-compartmentalize athe cytoplasm -allow cell to carry out biochemical reaction simultaneously -have special functions |
|
name the organelles
|
-nucleus
-ER -golgi apparatus -mitrochondria -chloroplast -lysosomes -vacuoles -perixosomes |
|
characteristics of the nucleus
|
-has nuclear envelope: double membrane
-nuclear pores:channels in envelope -chromatin:DNA+histones+ other proteins -chromosomes: condese chromatin visible during cell division -nucleolus: site of rRNA synthesis and ribosome assembly |
|
characteristics of the ER
|
- extensive network of folded membrane
-has rough ER -has smooth ER |
|
what are the charateristic of the Rough ER?
|
-series of flatened sacs called cisterns
-continuous with outer nuclear envelope studded with ribosomes -for protein transport |
|
what are the characteristic if the smooth ER?
|
-network of membranous tubules
-extended from rough ER -no ribosomes on surface -for lipid and cell membrane synthesis |
|
Characteristic of the Golgi apparatus
|
- 4-20 flattened sacs in a stack in most eukaryotic cells
-for protein modificaiton, packaging, secretion and membrane formation |
|
what are vesicles?
|
small sac used to shuttle or store molecules
|
|
what are the characteristics of the mitochondria?
|
-powerhouse
-site of TCA cycle and ATP production -has a double membrane -outermembrane that contains porins -has an inner membrane that fold to form cristae -self replicates by binary fission |
|
what is the matrix?
|
semifluid inside inner membrane that contains enzyme , mitochondrial DNA and 70s ribosomes
|
|
what are the characteristics of the chloroplasts?
|
-double membrane
-site of photosynthesis -contain stroma, thylakoid, granum -self replicating - in algae and plant |
|
what is the stroma?
|
matrix inside the inner membrane
|
|
what is the thylakoid?
|
flatten membrane sacs
|
|
what is the granum?
|
a stack of thylakoid
|
|
what are lysosomes characteristics?
|
-formed from the golgi apparatus
-store digestive enzyme hydrolases for intracellular digestion -fonction best at ph 3.5-5.0 |
|
what are the characteristics of vacuoles?
|
-membrane bounded cavity
-store food, water, and waste -provide support -most often in plant cells |
|
what are perixosomes?
|
store oxidative enzyme such as peroxidase and catalase
|
|
what is the endosymbiotic theory?
|
-eukaryotic cells evolved from a symbiosis between different specie of prokaryotes
|
|
what are the evidence of endosymbiotic theory?
|
-both mitochondria and chloroplast containd own DNA, have 70s ribosome and reproduce through binary fission
|
|
what are cilia?
|
short numerous, that helps cell for moving substances along cell surface
|
|
what is flagella?
|
few long that serve for motility
|
|
what are the structure of flagella and cilia?
|
-consist of membrane bound microtubules that have long hollow tubes made of tubulin
-anchored to cell membrane by basal body |
|
what are the 9+2 arragement?
|
9 pairs in a ring, 2 single in the center
|
|
differences between prok and euk?
|
- structurally and functionally different in many ways
-biochemically similar *same basic chemical composition *same genetic code *same basic metabollic processes |
