WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS 100% VERIFIED
Cells can be broken down into what two groups?
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
What type of cell contains a membrane bound nucleus, and organelles that are
specific to each cell?
Eukaryotic
What is the size range for Eukaryotic cells?
10-100 micro meters
What is the difference between animal and plant eukaryotic cells?
Animal cells don't have a cell wall. Plants have a rigid cell wall.
Can eukaryotic cells be single or multicellular?
Both
Which type of cell is less complex?
Prokaryotic
Which type of cell lacks a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles?
Prokaryotic
Which type of cell is smaller?
Prokaryotic
What is the size range of a prokaryotic cell?
1-5 micrometers
Are prokaryotic cells always single celled?
Yes
What 2 kingdoms are prokaryotic organisms apart of?
Bacteria and Archaea
What is something eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have in common?
Both have a plasma membrane, cytosol, and chromosomes.
What is the nucleoid region used for?
To store genetic information in prokaryotes
, True or false: If false, make it true. The nucleoid region is bound by a membrane
and does not contain bacterial chromosomes and DNA?
False The nucleoid region is NOT bound by a membrane and DOES contain bacterial
chromosomes and DNA.
Bacterial chromosomes are in what shape?
Circle
Define plasmids
Small, circular region of DNA.
How many plasmids do bacterial cells usually have?
Dozens
Which organelle can carry small amounts of genetic info and can replicate
independently of one another?
Plasmids
The __________ is filled with __________
intracellular region
cytoplasm
What is the responsibility of cytoplasm
Holding ribosomes and plasmids in the cell.
Are ribosomes bound by a membrane?
No
What is unique about bacterial ribosomes?
Their RNA and protein are unique. This allows for the creation of antibiotics b/c they
only target the unique RNA and protein in bacteria.
Contents of bacterial cells are enclosed in what?
Plasma membrane
What occurs in the plasma membrane?
Diffusion of ions/molecules and area for metabolic functions
Prokaryotic cells do not contain a __________ which is important for __________
mitochondria
aerobic respiration
