Eukaryotic Cells Flashcards
eukaryotic cells have…
more complex structure than prokaryote, ribosomes, and cell membrane
What kind of proteins does the cell membrane have?
transport, receptor, recognition, and enzymatic
Describe a eukaryotic cell structure
has cytoskeleton of protein fibers that involve cell shape, cell movement, organelle movement, and cell division
Mitochondria is…
about the same size as bacteria that has membranes that lack sterols and contains its own DNA and ribosomes; produces ATP
What are hydrogenosome?
lack TCA cycle enzymes and cristae and oxidation of pyruvate to H2, CO2, and acetate
Describe chloroplasts
membrane lack sterol and contains chlorophyll an has it own DNA and ribosomes; produces glucose and has stroma
Describe the theory of the Relation of Chloroplast and Mitochondria
they may be descendants of ancient prokaryotic cells (endosymbiosis)
