Document Summary

Biol 107 - lecture #10 - prokaryotic cell structure: studying cells, prokaryotes are small between 0. 1 and 100 m. Because of dilution problem: the plasma membrane is the selective barrier and only so much can pass through the doors" at once. Because of the surface area/volume ratio: surface area increases by the power of 2, then volume increases, prokaryotic cell structure by the power of 3! We already know that prokaryotes do not have any membrane bound organelles: they have, organelles, but just not the membrane bound ones, they do not have, membrane bound organelles. Nucleus, golgi, er, etc: bacterial motile structures. Prokaryotes do not have the same type of cytoskeleton as eukaryotes therefore their motile structures and strategies are completely different. In this section it is important to keep in mind the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic motile structures. Prokaryotic flagellum and rotates like a corkscrew to allow movement.

Related Questions

Please answer the following three essay questions.

All living cells, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic, have thefollowing cell structures: plasma membrane, cytosol, ribosomes, andat least one chromosome. Choose any one of these. Describe itsbasic structure (including molecular composition) as well as thefunction. Explain why a cell could not exist without thefunction(s) performed by this cell structure.
Cells can be categorized as either prokaryotic or eukaryotic.Only bacterial cells are prokaryotic. For question two, answer anyone of the following comparison questions. Be sure to compare bothmolecular (physical) structure and function in each answer.
1. Compare the nucleoid area (prokaryotic) to a nucleus(eukaryotic)? How do they differ; how are they similar?
2. Compare the bacterial flagellum (prokaryotic) to an animal cellflagellum (eukaryotic)? How do they differ; how are theysimilar?
3. Compare a bacterial cell wall (prokaryotic) to a plant cellwall (eukaryotic)? How do they differ; how are they similar?
Eukaryotic cells (in plants, animals, fungi, and algae) arebigger than prokaryotic (bacterial) cells. This bigger size allowseukaryotic cells to have more structural complexity.

Choose any one of the following eukaryotic cell structures for ashort essay:

Mitochondrion
Cytoskeleton
Golgi apparatus
Endoplasmic reticulum
Lysosome
Chloroplast (found only in photosynthetic cells)

In your answer, describe its basic structure (includingmolecular composition) as well as the function. Why is the functionimportant to keeping the cell alive?
