GENBIO - Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Flashcards
Special Features of Plant Cell
- Has chloroplast
- Has cell wall
Special Features of Animal Cell
- Has lysosome
- Has centrioles
- Has centrosome
It create and store usable energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts
It provides the cell with rigid structure.
Cell Wall
Describe Prokaryotic Cell
- No nucleus
- Few organelles (no membrane-bound organelles)
- Small in size
Describe Eukaryotic Cell
- Nucleus
- Many membrane-bound organelles
- Large in size
A simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle.
Prokaryotic Cell
Prokaryotic cell’s DNA is found in the central part of the cell: a darkened region called the _______-
Nucleoid
Some prokaryotes have __________.
- Flagella
- Pili
- Fimbriae
Describe Flagella
- Long, whip-like appendages.
- Primarily used for movement.
It is a hair-like structures that are generally longer
than fimbriae but shorter than flagella.
Pili
It used for attachment and genetic exchange type of reproduction.
Pili
The genetic exchange is also called __________.
Conjugation
Shorter and thinner than pili and flagella, with a bristle-like appearance.
Fimbriae
Fimbriae is mainly used for ___________.
Attachment to surfaces
Pili is used for ____________.
For attachment and genetic exchange
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Prokaryotic Cell has a few organelles (no membrane-bound organelles).
TRUE
MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE
Eukaryotic Cell has a few organelles (no
membrane-bound
organelles).
FALSE - PROKARYOTIC CELL
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Prokaryotic Cell has a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism.
TRUE
It lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle
Prokaryotic Cell
Two Kingdoms of Prokaryotic Cell
- Eubacteria (bacteria)
- Archaebacteria (Archae)
Basic structure of Prokaryotes
- DNA
- Cell/plasma membrane
- Cell wall
- Ribosomes
Some use structures like pili,cilia, and flagellum to move in aquatic environments.
It has a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound compartments or sacs
Eukaryotic Cells
Eukaryotic means
TRUE KERNEL OR TRUE NUCLEUS
MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE
The word “organelle” means “large organ”
FLASE - LITTLE ORGAN
The Four Kingdoms of Eukaryotic Cell
- Protista
- Fungi
- Plantae
- Animalia
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Eukaryotes can be multicellular or
unicellular.
TRUE
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Eukaryotes contain few organelles
FALSE - MANY ORGANELLES
It is an outer covering that separates the cell’s interior from its surrounding environment
PLASMA MEMBRANE
It consist of a jelly-like region within the cell
in which other cellular components are found
CYTOPLASM
It is the the genetic material of the
cell.
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
The particles that synthesize proteins.
RIBOSOMES
Four common components of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
- Plasma Membrane
- Cytoplasm
- DNA
- Ribosomes
They are significantly
smaller than eukaryotic
cells.
Prokaryotic
Cells
When does it becomes more and more difficult for the cell to acquire sufficient materials to support the processes inside the cell?
When the cell becomes larger
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Prokaryotic cells are easier to acquire sufficient materials to support the processes inside the cell.
TRUE
It is because prokaryotic cells are smaller than eukaryotic cell.
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus.
TRUE
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE
The DNA location of Eukaryotic cell is found at the Nucleoid.
FALSE - NUCLEUS
