9.1 Study Guide Flashcards
(11 cards)
Prokaryote vs. eukaryote
Prokaryotes have no nucleus as the Eukaryotes have a nucleus.
The cell structures that most cells have and their functions
Membrane: Outer boundary of the cell
Cytoplasm: Houses organelles
DNA: The genetic material of a cell
Ribosomes: Responsible for protein synthesis
Identify the benefits of both the prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell plans
Prokaryotic cells have fast reproduction rate, small size, and metabolic diversity.
Eukaryotic have genetic diversity, and energy production.
Get rid of waste
Eukaryotes: Digest the waste and the small waste products go to the cell membrane, Prokayotes: Enzymes break down and move them out proteins.
Serve as a container
Eukaryotes: Cell membrane can allow for some thing to go in or out, membrane on inside.
Prokaryotes: Two layers or one membrane proteins needed to move.
Contain a set of instructions
Eukaryotes: DNA holds info, Genes building informations, DNA pass info
Prokaryotes: DNA holds info, DNA passes info.
Read the instructions
Eukaryotes: Proteins do work, cell makes copy, proteins made in the cytoplasm
Prokaryotes: Proteins do work cell makes copy
Get and use energy
Eukaryotes: Cells get energy from ATP, ATP doesnt move in or out of cells, Enzymes break fuel down.
Prokaryotes: ATP takes fuel molecules, Enzymes that do CR some bateria do photosynthesis
Describe the steps and organelles involved in the making and distributing of proteins
Transcription, mRNA, Translation, Protein synthesis, Transport to golgi apparatus.
Explain why some cells would have more of one type of organelle than other cells
What is a key structural difference between bacteria and both plant and animal cells?
Bacteria have a prokaryotic structure, meaning they lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while plant and animal cells are eukaryotic and contain a true nucleus.
