There are two main types’ of cells. These are prokaryotic (see diagram 1) and Eukaryotic. ( See diagram 2). Prokaryotic cells are the cells of microorganisms such as Bacteria and Achaea. Eukaryotic cells are basically cells that make all other living things such as humans and animals. You can identify the difference between these cells by their structure they both have a number of features in common but all so lots of differences. The eukaryotic cell has a membrane enclosed organelle called…

believe that Patient A has the cancer. The evidence we found to support this was the unorganized arrangement and shape of the cells. They can be smaller or larger and have a distorted shape that vary. The nucleus also is usually smaller than the cytoplasm, but because they are enlarged and have more than one, there is less of the jelly like substance in the cell. They also appear darker because it contains too much DNA from the rapid divisions. According to the American Cancer society, stomach…

has a single lipid membrane that is surrounded by a cell wall composed of a thick layer of peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid. The structure allows hydrophobic molecules to easily penetrate the cell and act on both the cell wall and within the cytoplasm. The hydrophobicity of essential oils can disrupt bacterial structures: degrading the cell wall, damaging the cytoplasmic and membrane proteins, which results in permeability and leakage of cell contents. Toxic effects on the membrane structure…

The smallest unit within a living thing is known as a cell. Organisms are also a living thing and cell is considered to be the basic block of organisms that builds them. There are many different types of cells in a living thing and are divided into two main categories (i) prokaryotic and eukaryotic. (Karp, 2010). Characteristics of living cell Cells are considered as the most fundamental unit that has the responsibility to carry functions within a living organism (De Robertis & De Robertis,…

Support the Endosymbiotic Theory Gianna Melendez Chamberlain College of Nursing Support the Endosymbiotic Theory The endosymbiotic theory proposes that eukaryotes formed from the union of small aerobic prokaryotes with larger anaerobic prokaryotes, which form organelles. The smaller prokaryotes were not destroyed by the larger cells, but instead became internal parasites that remained surrounded by a vesicular membrane of the host. The theory proposed that mitochondria are the…

The Bubonic Plague is a bacteria known as Yersinia Pestis that infects the lymphatic system causing it to become inflamed (Tonsils, Adenoids, Spleen, and Thymus). The bacteria needs calcium to grow but when there is no calcium it produces amino acids called aspartic acid. Aspartic acid raises the blood plasma level of aspartate and glutamate. This excess can lead to damage of sensitive neurons. It can also help generate cellular energy, balance neurochemistry, and help the liver rid the body of…

energy. We couldn't run, play sports, or walk. Humans, or any other living thing in the world wouldn’t be able to survive without this process. The first very important step in Cellular Respiration is called glycolysis. Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm of af cells. In glycolysis, there are two phases that happen. The investment phase and the harvest. When we consume food, glycolysis goes to work. The food that we consume is first sent into the investment phase. In the investment phase, the…

MELAS is an uncommon hereditary disorder that can cause strokes and dementia. MELAS syndrome is a neurodegenerative disorder. MELAS stands for mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes. MELAS syndrome is brought about by changes in genetic material (DNA) in the mitochondria. Our DNA is found mostly in the cell nucleus. Some of our DNA is in another vital structure called the mitochondrion. MELAS syndrome is a known to begin in childhood,…

We, the organelles of Cell city need to unite and function as one. This can be achieved through the sole leadership of us, the Smooth-ER. We are like a tube that winds and bends. Our insides are surrounded by a phospholipid membrane, the same one used around this city. It might be easy to confuse us with our opponent, the Rough-ER, but make no mistake the Rough-ER are flat like pancakes while we are totally tubular. Although we create adrenal steroids, we also play a large role in the…

placed in hypotonic solutions the cells expand but do not burst because of the cell wall. This is known as the cell becoming turgid, which helps maintain the stability of the plant tissue. When a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the cytoplasm shrinks and moves away from the cell wall, and this is known as…
