Prokaryotic Cells

• Prokaryotic cells = BACTERIA

• It has no true nucleus or organelles. Instead it just has DNA, RNA, chrosomes, cytoplasm, a cell wall, and cell membrane.

• There are no organelles

The “POOR PRIMITVE PROKARYOTE”

Eukaryotic Cells

• Eukaryotic cells are plant, animal, and protist animal cells!!

• Have cell organelles.• Eu = means True• Karyote = cell

The following organelles are all found in Eukaryotic Cells

Cell Membrane

• Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells have cell membranes.

• In the eukaryotic cell membrane is the outmost part of an animal cell, controls what enters and exits in the plant cells (Figure 1).

The Cell Wall

• Like the Cell membrane, the cell wall also is in both Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells.

• Cell membranes are found on the outermost part of plant and bacteria cells, they are flat and rigid, are used for support in the cell.

Nucleus

• The nucleus is ONLY found in the Eukaryotic cells.

• It is located in the middle of animal cells

• It contains DNA, controls the activities of the cell, and cellular reproduction.

Ribosomes

• When looking at a picture of a cell you can locate the ribosomes very easily. They are the small dots seen on the endoplasmic reticulum.

• The ribosome contains RNA and produce proteins for the cell.

Golgi Apparatus

• Found in Eukaryotic cells.

• The job of the Golgi is to modify, sort, and package the proteins of the cells. Its is like the cell post office.

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Found in Eukaryotic cells.• This type of ER does not

have ribosomes on it so it looks smooth.

• Functions - synthesis of lipids and steroids, metabolism of carbohydrates, regulation of calcium concentration, drug detoxification, attachment of receptors on cell membrane proteins, and steroid metabolism.

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

“ER”•Rough ER has Ribosomes attached to it. It looks rough under a microscope.

•Endo = inside

•Plasmic = the plasma

•Reticulum = connector

•Endoplasmic Reticulum – connectors ( like tunnels) found inside the plasma.

Vacuole

• Is found in Eukaryotic cells.

• In plant cells it stores food and is found in the center of the cell.

• It is really BIG and called a Central Vacuole

• It stores water in animal cells and is fairly small.

Chloroplast• Are found in plant

cells (eukaryotic).• They produce

energy/food for the cell using sunlight.

• They are the “Green things” in plant cells.

• Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplast.

Mitochondria• Has a double

membrane ( 2 layers)• Known as the

“powerhouse” of the cell.

• Its job is getting energy for the cell which is called respiration .
