Document Summary

We will be spending more time on microbial eukaryotes which include fungi, protists, and. The morphology of typical eukaryal cells have a membrane-bound nucleus which is the key distinguishing factor with prokayotes. They are larger than both bacterial and archaeal cells, but we have already seen some exceptions to this. They contain organelles, membrane- bound compartments (instead of protein bound). They have a cell wall and a complex internal cytoskeleton. We don"t know where the nucleus came from if it has a double membrane structure! The mitochondrion which is the power house of the cell which also has a double membrane, contains dna, undergoes independent replication, and is not present in amitochondriates. They use the electron transport chain to produce atp which is the process of chemiosmosis, and also in later stages of cellular respiration. Chloroplasts which do photosynthesis which also have a double membrane, contain. Dna, undergoes independent replication and is only present in photosynthetic organisms.
