Eukaryote

There are many things that are common between plant and animal cells, I'll name five. First off, both cells contain nuclei and both make up eukaryotes. Both types of cells have a cytoplasm which contains various organelles. Both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane that surrounds. The different types of cells contain many of the same organelles such as ribosomes, smooth endoplasmic reticulum…

A genotype is known as the complete genetic makeup of a given organism. Consequently, a genotype is the one responsible for the phenotype of an individual. In eukaryotes, a single genotype is capable of expressing more than one phenotype (observable characteristics). This possibility is because genes can go through lots of differentiation processes like mutation, changes in gene expression and frequency. So, mutations play a significant role in variation. For example, DNA can be affected by the…

Plants are mainly multicellular, predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the Kingdom Plantae (Plant, 2018). Kingdoms are the main divisions which scientists use to classify all living things on Earth. Biologists have discovered 500 000 species of plants, of which 250 000 are angiosperms and are dominant in plant study (Encyclopedia, n.d.). Seeds are a small embryonic plant, which is enclosed in a small covering, called a seed coat, with stored food inside until they can obtain their energy…

cytoplasmic organelles. Plastids and the mitochondria are organelles in eukaryotic cells that derived from bacterial endosymbionts through the invasion and enslavement of synergistic amalgamation. The descendants of the primitive photosynthetic eukaryotes made way for the rise of green, red, and glaucophyte…

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,…

In the prokaryote cell, all the components of the cell are in the cytoplasm because they do not have a cell nucleus but in the eukaryote cell, the materials in the cell nucleus are separated from the cytoplasm. It is dominated mainly of water, but there are some enzymes like protein salts, organelles (mitochondria, Golgi apparatus and so on) and various organic molecules. The cytoplasm…

observation. The population doubling time is estimated to be 20 minute. B. Cellular reproduction : The three types of cell separation are : The binary fission, Mitosis, and Miosis. Binary fusion are prokaryotes cells and mitosis and miosis eukaryotes. All of the cells reproduce. Prokaryotic cells when they are ready to divide first copy the genetic material and become 2 chromosomes. It is like cloning. Mitosis is similar to binary fission in terms of results, chromosomes are…

Studies have shown that eukaryotic cells have existed and evolved from unicellular organisms that are prokaryotes. This occurred through different mutations, which is known as natural selection. Both eukaryotes and prokaryotes are living organisms and are a type of cell. Both types of cells have chemical instructions, can regulate their inter conditions to fit the surroundings, changes in both these types of cells are observed in their characteristics over the years. Living organisms have…

They are made within the nucleolus from 60% RNA and 40% protein, and consist of two subunits, one large and one small. When produced, the subunits stay separate to exit through the nuclear pores: it is only because of their miniscule size that they can fit through. Many ribosomes then bind themselves to the RER, although some stay free in the cytoplasm. Free and bound ribosomes both create polypeptide chains, which are used to make proteins. To create a polypeptide chain the large and small…

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which two different cells combine, which create an offspring. When two cells called the egg for female, and sperm for male, combine and join together they create a new organism called a zygote. During meiosis, one diploid cell divides and makes four haploid sex cells. Meiosis has two divisions of the cytoplasm and the nucleus, the divisions are called Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Reproductive cells go through interphase before meiosis. “ A…
