Prokaryotes vs Eukaryotes

  1. organisms
  2. cell support
  3. location of genetic material
  4. mitotic apparatus
  5. organelles
  6. Flagella and sperm tail make up
  7. uni/multicellular
  8. ribosomal subunit
  9. DNA/ chromosomes
  10. location of transcription and translation
  11. asexual/sexual
  12. types of reproduction
A
  1. bacteria
    1. fungi, protist, plants, animals
  2. cw (peptidoglycan)
    1. fungi cw (chitin)
    2. protists & plants cw (cellulose)
    3. animals no cw, instead internal cytoskeleton
  3. no nucleus, instead in the nucleoid (region)
    1. inside the nucleus
  4. none instead use cytoskeleton
    1. only animals: centrioles and asters (MTOC)
  5. none
    1. yes present (key distinction bw pro & euk)
  6. flagellin (use H+ and Na+ gradient)
    1. animals: microtubules (use ATP)
  7. uni
    1. fungi (uni/multi)
    2. protists (uni usually, but multi like algea)
    3. plants (uni/multi)
    4. animals (multi)
  8. 70s
    1. animal: 80s
  9. Single circular, 1 chromosome w.o histones
    1. animal: muli linear, multiple chromosomes w. histones
  10. occurs at the same time, in the cytoplasm
    1. occurs at different times, transcription in the nucleus, translation in the cytoplasm
  11. a/sexual
    1. fungi, protists, plants: a/sexual
    2. animals: sexual
  12. binary fission(a), conjugation(s), (transformation/transduction)
    1. fungi: spores/ mycelial fragmentation
    2. animals: meoisis

Q

Membrane

A

phospholipid bilayer, with hydrophobic and hydrphobic region. It is what encloses the organelles.

  1. In euk plasma membrane, embedded are…
    1. Transport proteins
    2. Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) proteins : recognize cells, located on cell surface
    3. Cholesterol: rigidity
    4. Sugar
