    Why Is Atoms Important

    • 943 Words
    • 4 Pages

    electromagnetic force is the reason why the electrons are repelled from the nucleus and the protons. The strong force is why the protons stay together in the middle. These both keep the atom from falling apart. Weak forces keep radioactive decay from transforming the nucleus into a proton or an electron. Most commonly know is gravity. Gravity impacts the less on the atom compared to the rest of the forces. Gravity affects the tiny nucleus slightly. The overall energy inside the atom can be so…

    cell to do so. Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes are types of cell but vary in terms of structure. A prokaryotic cell is a cell which lacks a defined nucleus, meaning there is a nucleoid which is not bounded by a membrane. Prokaryotes and usually unicellular, but can form larger organisms. A eukaryotic cell is a cell which contains a defined nucleus. Eukaryotes are usually part of a higher organism such as tissues which include organs, but can also be single celled organisms. Prokaryotes…

    • 3 Pages

    Domain: Eukarya Giant Pandas belong in this domain as they are composed of eukaryotic cells that have a specific task or function in the body. They are larger cells that possess membrane- bound nucleus and membranous organelles (including endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria). Like a prokaryotic cell, they also possess a plasma membrane, cytoplasm and ribosomes. Aksi giant pandas perform cell division through mitosis and reproduce sexually through meiosis.…

    Progeria, otherwise known as Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria syndrome , is a rare disorder that causes children to age eight times faster than a normal person. This disease affect only 350 kids today. It was discovered by Jonathan Hutchinson in England in 1886 and was first called Progeria by Hastings Gilford. It was then named Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria syndrome. The name Progeria is taken from a Greek word that means "prematurely old". It is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that an…

    Discussed in Chapter 17 is the cell cycle. The cell cycle is when the cell is replicated and divided. The cell cycle functions comparable to set of sequences in a control system. This control system behaves like switches with many backup processes and qualities allowing the cell cycle to operate effectively and efficiently. During the cell cycle, four stages occur known as G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase, & M phase. The G1 phase is where the cell is assigned to enter the process for chromosome…

    Protein Chromatin

    • 1350 Words
    • 6 Pages

    Introduction DNA makes up the genetic material for all organisms. However, not all organisms have distinct molecules working with DNA that come together to make up chromatin. Chromatin is only found in eukaryotic cells, the cellular makeup of multicellular organisms. The structure of chromatin is composed of DNA and histones, together making up nucleosomes, and other non-histone proteins that bind to the DNA. The backbone of DNA is negatively charged and histones have a positive charge…

    Prokaryotes Vs Eukaryotic

    • 284 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Prokaryotes can be recognized as a single-celled organism that lack the extensive internal compartments. Unlike eukaryotes, the prokaryotes concentrated their genetic materials in a small portion of cell’s cytoplasm known as nucleoid. Almost entire prokaryotic genome is contained in a single circular DNA strand that is supercoiled. Some additional genes are located on an independent small, circular or linear plasmids which coding for extra properties likes antibiotic resistance (Brown, 2002).…

    Cells Vs Eukaryotic Cells

    • 299 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Prokaryotes are all unicellular and are less advanced than eukaryotes; meaning that they lack a nucleus and only have a nucleoid region. They also lack membrane bound organelles. Prokaryotes are then broken into two kingdoms, Bacteria and Archaea. Bacteria are the less advanced of the two and is believed that Archaea advanced from Bacteria and then eukaryotic cells advanced from Archaea. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane bound cells. It is believed that the first Eukaryotic cell…
