Answer :-
1.The structure and function of the cytoplasmic membrane are
explained in the fluid mosaic model. The cytoplasmic membranes of
bacterial cells are composed of phospholipids, which create a
semipermeable barrier to the cell's outer environment. The only
molecules that can easily cross the membrane are small, lipid
soluble molecules. Other types of molecules must use the wide
variety of transport proteins embedded in the phospholipid bilayer
to cross the membrane. In this way, the cell can control the
concentration of both its nutrients and its waste products. The
cytoplasmic membrane can also be used for energy production and for
photosynthesis in prokaryotic cells.
2. (a) Cell wall: The cell wall of almost all bacteria contains
peptidoglycan, a molecule absent in eukaryotic cell walls.
Gram-negative cell walls contain unique molecules such as
lipopolysaccharide and structures such as porins, which are not
present in eukaryotic cells. Additionally, human cells do not have
a cell wall at all.
(b) Ribosomes: Bacterial ribosomes have a 70S structure, whereas
eukaryotic ribosomes have an 80S structure. This difference is
enough to allow some drugs to preferentially affect bacterial
ribosomes while leaving eukaryotic ribosomes unharmed.
(c) Cellular appendages: Although both prokaryotic and eukaryotic
cells can have flagella, the two types of cells use structurally
different types of flagella. Furthermore, many bacteria have
fimbriae and pili, which are not found on eukaryotic cells.
(d) Cell membrane: Most cells use a phospholipid bilayer with
inserted proteins as a cell membrane; however, bacterial cell
membranes may contain hopanoids, which are absent in eukaryotic
cell membranes.
