types of cells Flashcards
earths first cells were prokaryotic
have many capsules around the outside that helps them stick to surfaces or each other.
prokaryotic cells
genetic material is NOT contained in the nucleus. Hesse cells are smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells. they are identified by shape, chemical nature of the cell wall, haw they move, and how they get their energy.
domain bacteria kingdom eubacteria
surrounded by a cell wall, may have 2 cell membranes( e.coli, streptococcus)
domain archaea includes kingdom archaeabacteria
similar in appearance to eubacteria but chemical composition of cell wall and membrane are different ( methanogens, halophiles)
can live in
fresh water
salt water
hot springs
thermal vents
eukaryotic
these organisms evolved from prokaryotic organisms. they have a me brain bound nucleus. mitochondria and chloroplasts are only found in eukaryotic cells. these cells are larger.
