Prokaryotic cell (bacteria). Flashcards
Bacteria organelles(prokaryotic cell).
Cell membrane.
Mesosome.
Cell wall.
Cytoplasm.
Nucleiod.
Ribosomes (70s)=smaller than euk.
Only in some bacteria:
Slime capsule.
Plasmid.
Flagella.
Pilus.
Cell wall structure and function.
S: Made of peptidoglycan (murein).
F: Maintains structure of cell.
Cell membrane structure and function.
S: Made of phospholipids.
F: Controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Mesosome structure and function.
S: Folding of the cell membrane.
F: Aerobic respiration.
Cytoplasm structure and function.
S: Fluid that contains enzymes.
F: Site of chemical reactions.
Nucleiod structure and function.
S: Circular loop of chromosomal DNA.
F: DNA replication and some parts of protein synthesis.
Ribosomes structure and function.
S: Large sub unit on a small sub unit.
F: End of protein synthesis.
Slime capsule structure and function.
S: Made of polysaccharide, polypeptide or both, loosely associated, attached to wall, unorganised layer of extracurricular material that surrounds cell.
F: To stop the cell from dehydrating and protect the cell from the host.
Plasmid structure and function.
S: Made of DNA.
F:Provides extra genes (e.g.adaptations).
Flagella structure and function.
S: Made of protein.
F: Movement or propulsion of the cell.
Pilus structure and function.
S: Hair-like structure.
F: Allows bacteria to attach to each other.
