DNA is contained in one or more chromosomes located in a non-membrane bound nucleoid region in
Prokaryotes
DNA is contained in one or more chromosomes located in a membrane bound nucleus in
Eukaryotes
A phospholipid bilayer with proteins that separates the cell from the surrounding enviornment and functions as a selective barrier for the import and export of materials
Plasma Membrane
The rest of the material of the cell within the plasma membrane and excluding the nucleoid region or nucleus.
Cytoplasm.
Cytoplasm consists of a fluid portion called
Cytosol
The structures on which protein synthesis takes place.
Ribosomes
They lack a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
Prokaryotic cells
Cell contains large numbers of ribosomes which are used for protein synthesis
Prokaryotic cells
Where does cellular respiration occur in prokaryotic cells?
Plasma Membrane
Outside of the plasma membrane in most Prokaryotes is a fairly rigid wall of peptidoglycans that protect the cell from
Osmotic Lysis
Some bacteria have flagella that are used for
Locomotion
Some bacteria have pili which are used to
Connect two cells for genetic material
This provides a sticky protective layer outside the cell wall of some bacteria
Capsule
This type of cell contains a membrane bound nucleus and numerous membrane enclosed organelles (mitochondria, lysosomes, golgi apparatus)
Eukaryotes
The nucleus is bound by this
nuclear envelope
In the nuclear membrane, material enters and leaves through these
Nuclear Pores
consists of microtubules, intermediate fibers, and microfilaments.
Cytoskeleton
Maintain cell shape, anchors organelles and cause cell movement
Cytoskeleton
More permanent than microtubules or microfilaments
Intermediate filaments
This is not part of a prokaryotic cell
Chloroplast
Using the light microscope, which would allow discrimination between eukaryotes and prokaryotes?
Observation of nuclei.
A eukaryotic cell can ingest a prokaryotic cell by
Phagocytosis
The nuclear area of the bacterial cell
Contains the bacterial chromosome
Spherical shaped bacteria that divide and remain attached in chainlike patterns are called
Streptococci
Polyphosphate (volutin), carboxysomes, and magnetosomes are examples of
Inclusion bodies
Spirochetes and spirilla are both spiral shaped bacteria. However, they differ in that spirochetes have ________________ and spirilla do not
Endoflagella
Chemotaxis refers to the ability of microorganisms to
Move toward or away from chemical stimuli
Gram-negative cells contain a periplasmic space which is
Rich in degradative enzymes
The pressure required to prevent the movement of pure water into a solution containing some solutes.
Osmotic Pressure
Active transport is different from facilitated diffusion because active transport requires
Energy in the form of ATP
