Document Summary

Unit 1 intro to the cell: for info on cell theory people and more, see quizlet flashcards, https://quizlet. com/_3ph0t0. No nucleus (genome is single circular strand of naked dna) Very small, no need for cytoskeletal transport systems. Has a nucleus (containing multiple linear strands of dna) Transcription and translation happen in separate compartments (nucleus then cytoplasm) Proteins in cytoplasm move to rough er golgi secretor(cid:455) vesicles cell e(cid:454)terior. food material brought in by phagocytosis--> lysosomes digest it.
