When comparing prokaryotic cells to eukaryotic cells, what things are prokaryotic cells missing?
|
membrane bound nucleus, cellular organelles (such as mitochondria, golgi body, vesicles, chloroplasts).
|
|
What do prokaryotic cells have that eukaryotic cells have?
|
cytoplasm, ribosomes, DNA, +/- cell walls
|
|
What is the function of this organelle?
|
modify, store and package lipids and proteins before shipping them to a specific location.
|
|
What are 2 functions of this organelle?
|
synthesize lipids and detoxification
|
|
What are 2 functions of this organelle?
|
Production and transport of proteins (some just happen to be enzymes)
|
|
What items do some bacteria and plant cells contain that animal cells do not?
|
Cell wall
|
|
Cells which produce hormones for export would likely contain relatively high numbers of what organelle?
|
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (hormones can be lipids; lipids are synthesized here)
|
|
Muscle cells of a cheetah's leg would likely contain relatively high numbers of which cellular organelle?
|
Mitochondria (these produce ATP which fuels the energy needed to allow muscle cells to be used rapidly)
|
|
What is the function of this cellular organelle?
|
Storage area for water, sugars, salt, pigments and toxic substances.
|
|
What is the function of this cellular organelle?
|
To use light energy to produce simple sugars.
|
|
What is the correct organelle sequence (starting the nucleus) for the production and export of a protein out of the cell?
|
Nucleus (info) --> Rough ER (produce protein) --> vesicle--> Golgi body (modify, store, package, label & ship) --> vesicle --> cell membrane
|
|
White blood cells which are continuously carrying out phagocytosis of invaders can be expected to contain relatively large numbers of which cellular organelle?
|
lysosomes
|
|
What cellular organelle produces the molecules of which structure X is composed?
|
nucleolus (it makes RNA and RNA + protein make up ribosomes)
|
|
What is the function of the indicated cellular organelle?
|
produce proteins (or enzymes)
|
|
What organelles contain nucleic acid?
|
Nucleus (DNA), Nucleolus (RNA production), Rough ER (houses ribosomes which are made of RNA + protein), Mitochondria (produces ATP which is a nucleotide)
