New cards

The structure of eukaryotic cells, restricted to the structure and function of:

cell-surface membrane

nucleus(containing chromosomes, consisting of protein-bound, linear DNA, and one or more nucleoli)

mitochondria 

chloroplasts(in plants and algae)

Golgi apparatus and Golgi vesicles

lysosomes (a membrane-bound organelle that releases hydrolytic enzymes)

ribosomes

rough endoplasmic reticulum and smooth endoplasmic reticulum

cell wall (in plants, algae and fungi)

cell vacuole (in plants).

2
New cards

are eurkaryotic cells or prokaryotic cells bigger?

eukaryotic cells are bigger, prokaryotic cells are smaller

3
New cards

what do prokaryotic cells also differ from eukaryotic cells in having:

cytoplasm that lacks membrane-bound organelles

smaller ribosomes

no nucleus; instead they have a single circular DNA molecule that is free in the cytoplasm and is not associated with proteins

a cell wall that contains murein, a glycoprotein.

In addition, many prokaryotic cells have:

one or more plasmids

a capsule surrounding the cell

one or more flagella.

4
New cards

what is a virus described as? 

acellular and non-living.

5
New cards

what does the structure of a virus look like?
