Document Summary
All living things descended from a common ancestral cell. Water, inorganic ions and a wide array of relatively small molecules make up for 75% to. Both large and small molecules are important to the cell. Adenosine triphosphate (atp) is the most common molecule used by cells to capture, store and transfer energy: currency of the cell. All life is classified into three groups: bacteria, archaea, eukaryota. There are two distinctive types of cell: prokaryotic cell, eukaryotic cell. Nucleoid, cytoplasm, inner membrane, cell wall, periplasmic space, and outer membrane. Molecular cell biology, 8th edition - lodish: archaea. Eubacteria or bacteria: single celled organisms, cyanobacteria, 1 2 m. Escherichia coli (e. coli: most common experimental organism. Cytoskeleton: gives cell strength and rigidity, maintains cell shape, controls movement of structures within the cell, 3 classes of fibers compose the cytoskeleton, microtubules. Built of polymers of the protein tubulin: intermediate filaments. Nucleolus: inside the nucleus, where ribosomal rna is synthesized and ribosomes are assembled.
