basic components of a living system: prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells Flashcards
prokaryotic cells dna and organelles
their dna is not contained in the nucleus
and their organelles are not membrane - bound
dna of prokaryotic cell
structure is same as eukaryotic but packaged differently
1 molecule of DNA a chromosome supercoiled to make it more compact
prokaryotic cells ribosomes
smaller then eukaryotic cells 70S and then 80S
both necessary for protein synthesis
prokaryotic cells cell wall
peptidoglycan
polymer made from amino acids and sugars
prokryotic cells flagella
thinner doesnt have 9 2 arrangements
energy to rotate filaments isnt from ATP
flagellum is attached to cell membrane by basal body and rotated by a molecular motor
different of nucleus between p and e
p not pesent
e present
different of DNA between p and e
p circular
e linear
different of extra chromosomal DNA between p and e
p circular DNA called plasmids
e only present in certain organelles like chloroplasts and mitochondria
different of organelles between p and e
p non membrane bound
e membrane and non membrane bound
different of cell wall between p and e
p peptidoglycan
e chitin in fungi, cellulose in plants
different of ribosomes between p and e
p 70s
e 80s
different of cytoskeleton between p and e
p present
e present but more complex
different of reproduction between p and e
p binary fission
e asexual or sexual
different of cell type between p and e
p unicellular
e unicellular and multicellular
different of cell surface membrane between p and e
p present
e present
