Cell theory
All living things are composed of cells and that all cells come from earlier cells
every cell and every organism on earth was formed
by a previous cell
Two daughter cells
two identical cells that are produced when a single parent cell divides through the process of mitosis
every cell in your body
was formed by a devision of a previous cell
Prokaryotes-single celled organism
do not have a membrane-bound nucleus to contain their DNA. (but it does have a membrane
Example of Prokaryote cells
bacteria and archea
Eukaryotic cells
cell or organism that possesses a clearly defined nucleus.
Did you know
Eukaryotic cells are usually larger than prokaryotic cells
examples of eukaryotic cells
plants, animals, fungi,protists
ALL CELLS
have a cell membrane, cytosol(fluid filled in membrane), DNA,Ribasomes
Ribosomes make
protein
nukleoid/nucleus
where you find the DNA
prokaryotic cells are much ____ than eukaryotic cells
simpler
cytoplasm
the inside of the sale
polar
hydrophilic
non polar
hydrophobic
nuclear envelope
double membrane
DNA
never leaves the nucleus
Nuclear pores
protein-lined channels in the nuclear envelope that regulate the movement of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm of a cell
All cells in your body
have the same amount of DNA, but not all use the same amount
mRNA
leaves the nucleus
negative feedback group
a regulatory mechanism that helps maintain a stable state, or homeostasis, by counteracting a change in a system
Rough ER
endoplasmic reticulum
Rough Er
is a single membrane, has ribosomes on the outside that gives it a rough appearance
