What are the different organelles that make up our cells? What are their functions? What organelles are the most numerous inside cells? What organelle is the powerhouse of the cell? Which organelles do eukaryotic cells have that prokaryotic cells do not have?
The term “capsule” refers to the outer protective layer that bacteria have in addition to their cell walls. It aids in the retention of moisture, guards against cell engulfment, and aids in the clinging of cells to surfaces and nutrients. Prokaryotic cells store extra material as inclusion bo...
How do you make and secrete a protein (exocytosis)? 1.)-The gene that has the coded instructions for a protein, housed on chromatin in the nucleus, is transcribed into a length of RNA called messenger RNA (mRNA). 2.)-Many copies of the mRNA are made and they...
Are prokaryotes and eukaryotes a type of cell? What are examples of organisms that contain prokaryotic cells? What is intercellular cytoplasmic communication? How do plant cells elongate? What's the purpose of genes in the cell? Why do we only use some genes in some cells?
Figure 1: A eukaryotic cell (left) has membrane bound organelles, while a prokaryotic cell (right) does not. image ©J Thorpe Konstantin Mereschkowski (Figure 2) originally proposed the idea that chloroplasts in plants evolved from a symbiotic relationship like the one he had seen in his ...

They can even both have a cell wall! Both cell types are also made up of organelles. Organelles are small structures that perform different jobs within a cell. The organelles within the cell determine the structure and function of a cell making the cell specialized. Cells being specialized is...
Organelles are small subcellular structures located in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, and in more complex eukaryotic cells, organelles are often enclosed by their own membrane. Each organelle performs a specialised function for that cell, much like an organ does for the body. ...
Cell Wall An additional non-living layer present outside the cell membrane in some cells that provides structure, protection, and filtering mechanism to the cell is the cell wall. Structure of Cell Wall In a plant cell, the cell wall is made up of cellulose, hemicellulose, and proteins while...
