eukaryotes include kingdoms such as protista,
fungi
, plants, and
animals
life should be able to grow and
divide
, react to
stimulus
, and respond to internal and external changes
life must be able to take up
nutrients
from external environment and have a
membrane bound
structure
viruses aren't alive because they don't have a
cell membrane
, organelles or a
nucleus
and only replicate and react to and from host cells
eukaryotes have a
nucleus
,
membrane bound organelles
, and a cell membrane
eukaryotes are larger than
10
to
100
micrometers
prokaryotic
cells lack a true
nucleus
and membrane-bound organelles
internal structures of eukaryotes include
cytoplasm
and
organelles
cytoskeleton is made of microfilaments,
intermediate
filaments, and
microtubules
external eukaryote structures include sometimes
cell wall
, glycocalyx,
flagella
, cilia and cytoplasmic membrane
glycocalyx
is a sticky carbohydrate that help cells attach to eachother, communication, protects against
dehydration
flagellum
is used for movement by
rotating
like propeller or whip-like motion
cilia
is
hair-like
projections on the surface of some cells that move back and forth to create waves of fluid flow over the cell's surface
eukaryotes with actual cell walls don’t have
glycocalyx
present,
strengthen
cell surfaces
Fungi algae and plants and some protozoa have
cell walls
which are composed of various
polysaccharides
chitin
is found in
fungal
cell walls
cellulose
is found in
plant
cell walls
cellulose
is found in
plant walls
and fungal
glucomannan
in
fungal
cell walls
the function of the cytoplasmic membrane is to
separate
the cell from its
environment
and to allow substances to move in and out
the cytoplasmic membrane contains
steroid lipids
to maintain
fluidity
endocytosis
is the process of engulfing material from the
extracellular
environment
exocytosis is the release of materials into the
extracellular
space
Flagella
Undulate
- back and forth movement, they move different from
prokaryotic
flagella, they push/pull cell through a medium
flagella
are Surrounded by extension of the cell membrane and filled with
cytosol
ribosomes
are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum and are responsible for
protein synthesis
eukaryotic
ribosomes are
larger
than prokaryotic ones
Centrosome
is where centrioles are found in the cytoplasm
centrioles are involved in
mitosis
and
cytokinesis
centrioles
are involved in
flagella
and cillia development
centrioles
are found in
animals
and fungi
cytoskeleton offers
structure
and
protection
the
cytoskeleton
is a network of fibres and tubules that anchors organelles and moves cytoplasmic membrane during
endocytosis
the
nucleus
is the
largest
organelle
the
nucleus
contains DNA, RNA polymerase, histones,
ribonucleoproteins
(RNP), and nuclear pores
DNA is organized into
chromatin
which consists of DNA wrapped around proteins called
histones
RNA synthesized in
nucleoli
present in
nucleoplasm
the nucleus is surrounded by
nuclear envelope
and contains
nuclear pores
E.R is
Flattened
hollow tube networks continuous with
nuclear
envelope
the
golgi bodies
Receives, processes and packages large molecules for
export
