Document Summary

Ribosomes (non membrane bound: eukaryotic ribosomes are larger and structurally more complex than those of prokaryotic ones, but serve the same purpose, nucleus (membrane bound, surrounded by nuclear envelope contains genetic information, in eukaryotic cell, dna is structured with protein, number of distinct chromosomes, number of distinct linear chromosomes, also the site of ribosome synthesize, synthesized by the nucleolus, migrate out into the cytoplasm, by means of the nuclear pores in the envelope, between divisions, distinct chromosomes become less obvious, naked and circular dna in prokaryotes. Mitochondrion (membrane bound: around 2 micrometers with a double membrane, oxidative metabolism yielding atp, cellular respiration, reproduce by fission, chloroplast (membrane bound, around 5 micrometers with a double membrane + thylakoids, conversion of light energy into chemical energy (make food, in the form of carbohydrates, reproduce by fission, thylakoids house the chlorophyll, light energy captured by the chlorophyll.
