Basic Eukaryotic Biology Flashcards
Describe prokaryotic cell
Unicellular Bacteria + Archaea No nucleus Non membrane bound organelles Cytoplasm BUT no cytoskeleton 1 circular pseudo chromosome
Describe eukaryotic cell
Multicellular or unicellular Plants, protozoa, fungi + animals Nucleus Membrane-bound organelles Cytoplasm + cytoskeleton Multiple chromosomes
How do prokaryotes replicate?
Binary fission
How do eukaryotes replicate?
Mitosis
What is role of nucleus?
Genetic material
What is role of golgi?
Receives materials from ER + processes + packages
In + outside of cell secretion
What is role of ER?
SER = makes lipids RER = modifies proteins
What is role of nucleolus?
Makes proteins
What does eukaryotic cells have?
Nuclear envelope
What is role of ribosome?
Translates mRNA into protein structures
What is role of lysosome?
Protect eukaryotic cell
Where are lysosomes found?
Within golgi
What is role of mitochondria?
Make ATP to drive energy requiring processes
What is role of cell membrane?
Hold cytoplasm inside of cell from outside factors
Selectively permeable
What is role of cytoplasm?
Allows cell to carry out function
