|
|
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
|

|
consists of microtubules, intermediate fibers, and microfilaments.
|
Cytoskeleton
|
|
Maintain cell shape, anchors organelles and cause cell movement
|
Cytoskeleton
|
|
More permanent than microtubules or microfilaments

Streptococci
|
|
Polyphosphate (volutin), carboxysomes, and magnetosomes are examples of
|
Inclusion bodies

Endoflagella
|
|
Chemotaxis refers to the ability of microorganisms to

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
