Eukaryote

and cellular biology. While cells are the building blocks of all living organism, scientists have confirmed that there are actually different types of cells depending on the organism. The two main classes of organisms are the prokaryotes and the eukaryotes. The prokaryotic is the simpler of the two and are the one-celled organisms such as bacteria and archaea. The interior of a prokaryotic cell consists of a main nucleoid, which contains the DNA, the ribosomes, which synthesize proteins, and the…

Organisms: Eukarya Terms: (u CARE ee uh) contains complex organisms (the eukaryotes) that have cells with nuclei. Eukarya, organisms include protists, plants, animals and fungi Eukaryotic cells are larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells. In addition to a nucleus, they contain many other internal structures (organelles), including mitochondria and chloroplasts. Importance to Evolution: Eukarya are important to evolution these cells are considered a milestone in the…

1.1 Introduction: Both living and non-living things are composed of molecules made from chemical elements such as Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. The organization of these molecules into cells is one feature that distinguishes living things from all other matter. The cell is the smallest unit of matter that can carry on all the processes of life. The three principles define cell theory: 1. All living things are composed of one or more cells. 2. Cells are the basic units of structure and…

1. How do the three objective lenses on the microscope you used differ and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each? • The three main objective lenses we used were the 4x, 10x, and 40x magnification. • The 4x was great in initially finding the item we were looking for. It also gave a good look at general size of the overall item we were viewing. It wasn’t that great at letting you see a ton of detail. • The 10x was the most frequently used objective. It gave us a really nice view of…

structure, absorb nutrients from food and convert those nutrients into energy so that the cell can carry out specialized functions. There are two main categories with most organisms and their cells; prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The distinctive difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while as prokaryotic cells do not. Plant cells are eukaryotic, plant cells have a nuclei and membrane bound organelles. The main…

Christianity is a monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, who lived 2,000 years ago. In 2010, the number of Christians was at 2.2 billion, 31 percent of the world’s population (Chappell, 2015). Christians believe that God created the Earth and everything else, including humans, in six days. On the other hand, science has revealed that earth most likely was formed about 4.6 billion years ago. It formed from dust and gas rotating and gathered by gravity after the Sun…

Question: Module #6 Chapter 11 Books cited: Becker’s world of the cell: J. Hardin, G. Bertoni, and L. Kleinsmith: 8th edition; pgs.298-299 & 301-307. Question #2 from D2L: The endosymbiont theory attempts to explain the evolutionary origin of eukaryotes. Describe this theory in a paragraph. Be sure to use these terms: semiautonomous organelles, symbiotic relationship, protoeukaryote, purple bacteria, cyanobacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. Through research it was discovered that…

Observation of plant and animal cells through a light microscope. A cell is the most basic structure of any living organism and is capable of independently reproducing. Cells can be grouped into two categories, prokaryotic and eukaryotic. In a eukaryotic cell there are small organelles that carry out specific functions which can be compared to the organs in the human body. Some of these organelles include the nucleus, which holds the cells DNA, mitochondria, which produce ATP from glucose and…

have no membrane bound organelles. Prokaryotes can be divided into two domains, Archaea and Bacteria. However organisms, whose cells are organized into complex structures by a nucleus, contain internal membranes and a cytoskeleton are known to be Eukaryotes. Similarly plant and animal cells can be classified into eukaryotic cells. Both organisms contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes. Furthermore…

Forensic science, known as forensics, is the application of science to law by analyzing DNA for legal evidence. DNA profiling is the predominant application and forensic science, DNA profiling allows us to take more than one sample of an unknown DNA specimen and determine if it has the same genetic match. Moreover, DNA profiling is to help determine and solve crime scenes such as murders, assaults, and rapes. The technique used for analyzing DNA is restriction fragment length polymorphism…
