Question

First, let's differentiate all the detailed vocabulary about all these cells we learned this week. When looking under microscope what structural differences would you see between two types of cells.

Now choose ONE cellular component (e.g. a part of a cell) that is found only in bacteria. Discuss what its role is.

-OR-

Choose ONE cellular component that is only found in eukaryotes. Discuss what its role is.

Answer 1

Eukaryotic cells are considered to be the true cells that are incorporated with the cell organelles bounded by cell memberane. The major difference between the eukaryote and prokaryote cells is that eukaryotic cells hjave cell memberance bounded organelles and procaryots have organelles without any memberane.

The only cell organell found in eukaryot is mitrochondria, that is absent in prokaryots. Mitrocondria, is an essential organ for these cells, it is the membrane where the chemical reactions occur, the main job of this organ is to perform cellular respiration. The mitrochondria takes the nutrients from the cell, breaks it down and turns it into the energy. This is also known as the powerhouse of cell as it provides energy and respiration to the cells.
