Organelle

While the animal cell has lysosomes, the plant cell has lytic vacuoles. They both do the same thing; they digest excess or worn out organelles and food particles. Even though the animal cell has microtubules, the plant cell has chloroplasts. The microtubules move around all of the organelles in a plant cell including mitochondria, like a conveyer belt. The chloroplasts use photosynthesis to make food, energy, and heat. The animal cell has centrioles, however…

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 oxygen, known as cellular respiration, and the golgi body which packages and processes different substances leaving the cell. Prokaryotic cells are the simpler of the two cells and are single celled organisms, such as bacteria, that don’t contain organelles.…

Within this cytosol most organelles will be found. Some of these organelles are shared by prokaryotes and eukaryotes including ribosomes which are very small and are involved in making proteins. In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes there may be a structure called a flagellum which is a projection or continuation…

you are viewing a live specimen and do not want to kill it. 2. Prokaryotic cells are small, simple, no nucleus, no membrane-bound organelles, single loop of DNA (nucleosome), no cellulose, cytoplasm, cell membrane, cell wall (made of carbs), sometimes have cilia or flagella (movement). Eukaryotic Cells are larger cells, complex, with nucleus, membrane bound organelles, DNA tightly wrapped around histone proteins in chromosomes, cellulose in plant cell walls. 3. Chloroplasts are present in plant…

these protective suits so we would be kept safe from any harmful substances. We were all told that we would be put into two groups the A and the B group. We would all be put into a Eukaryotic Cell if the machine worked to get a closer look at the organelles in a Eukaryotic Cell. I was put into the A group along with another girl who looked about 16. The B group had a boy who looked about 14 and a girl who looked about 15. I guess the age varied between all of us because I am 17. The age range is…

bacteria’s`, plants`, animals`, protists`, etc., they all will be bounded by a plasma membrane (Biology Department,2015), and contain a nucleic acid: such as DNA, RNA, cytoplasm, and ribosomes. The things that prokaryotes will not have are organelles. Organelles can be known as the parts of the cell, such as: Nucleus, ER, Golgi apparatus, etc. There are there domains that exist: Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya(Biology Department,2015) Archaea and Bacteria look very similar under the microscope and…

Nucleus The Nucleus is an example of a command centre found inside a eukaryotic cell; it’s usually the most prominent organelle, yet it occupies only 10% of the total volume of the cell. If this cell did not have a Nucleus, it would be defined as a prokaryote cell, however if the Nucleus was damaged and not repaired, the cell would simply die. The cell nucleus is enclosed within a double membrane (contains an Inner and Outer Nuclear Membrane) called the Nuclear Envelope, which separates the…

Level 3 Applied Science Unit 11 physiology of Human Body Systems Task 1: ORGANELLE DIAGRAM FORM FUNCTION Nucleolus • The nucleolus is a darker staining region of the nucleus. It is non-membrane bound structure composed of ribonucleic acids (RNA) and proteins. It makes ribosomes inside the nucleus and contains all the DNA of the cell. It is also used for cellular reproduction and it is often referred to as the brain of the cell as it controls what goes on. Golgi…

Mitochondria are filamentous organelles of all aerobic cells of higher animals and plants and also certain microorganism like protozoa. Studies show that that mitochondria are the direct descendants of a bacterial endosymbiont that became established at an early stage in a nucleus-containing host cell (Gray et al., 1999). Mitochondria are surrounded by a double-membrane system, consisting of inner and outer mitochondrial membranes separated by an intermembrane space. (Cooper, 2000). It has the…

Introduction In the Foundations of Biology lab section everyone had to investigate cell organelles and cellular metabolism. Every quad or tri group had to test for the activity of a chloroplast electron transport chain. The two choices that were available for us to investigate was broccoli and pea seedlings. Our group was nominated to utilize 20 grams of broccoli florets to find fractions that composed of an abundance of chloroplast. Project 1 had 3 parts to it; this consists of fractionation…
