Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells

functions such as energy production may occur Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles; their cell functions are carried out in the cytoplasm. During this laboratory you will investigate some of the structural of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. We are going to focus on the simple differences between eukaryotes and prokaryotes in Bio 201. We will cover the prokaryotes in much more detail in Bio 203.

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells Do all cells have the same structure? Why? An efficiency apartment is a one-room apartment. This one room is where you sleep, eat, shower, and entertain your guests. It all happens in one room. It is a simple way of living in a small space. A mansion is a large, complex living space with many separate rooms. There are rooms for cooking, eating, sleeping, bathing, reading, watching TV, entertaining guests, exercising, and storage. The rooms in a mansion are constructed for the specific things you would like to be able to do. You can live in simple efficiency or complexity. In this activity we will be looking at cells that are as simple as a one-room efficiency apart- ment or as complex as a mansion.

Respond to Light. (Under the direction of Dr. Alexander Deiters). Highly complex synthetic gene circuits have been engineered in living organisms to develop systems with new biological properties. In order to program synthetic gene circuits to perform their various functions, external control over their activity needs to be achieved. Any input for an engineered system must be accurate, precise and tunable to ensure stable output generation. Light serves as an excellent trigger to achieve precise control over synthetic systems as it can be regulated in wavelength, timing, intensity and location. Light-inducible systems are often generated through the installation of a light-cleavable photo-protecting (photocaging) group on a biologically active small molecule. The research herein describes various synthetic biological systems whose activity can be controlled by light through photocaged small molecules and other small molecule tools. Specifically we show the (1) control of gene expression in prokaryotic cells with photocaged inducer molecules, (2) control of protein function in pro- and eukaryotic cells through genetically encoded unnatural amino acids, (3) synthesis of small molecules for the control of miRNA function in

The bacterial cell A generalised diagram of a bacterial cell is shown in Fig. 1.1.1. Bacteria are prokaryotic, and therefore lack a true membrane-bound nucleus. The DNA is present as a single circular molecule, usually termed the bacterial chromosome, although strictly speaking this term should be reserved for the more complex DNA:protein structures found in eukaryotic cells. The DNA is highly condensed or ‘packaged’ by coiling and folding, and this produces a structure known as the nucleoid. Such packaging is needed because of the length of the DNA molecule – a typical Escherichia coli cell is about 1 µm diameter × 2 µm length, yet it contains about 1,400 µm of DNA. Fitting all this into the cell is only possible because DNA is a very long, thin molecule.

1.2 Cells Cells are incredibly complex structures, with dynamics we are nowhere close to understanding. We can distinguish between two types of cells, Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells. While there are certainly differences within each of these cell types, they will not concern us in our look at the genetic environment.

eukaryotic cells on the board. I will explain that the day’s activity involves the creation of an antibiotic and go over the worksheet (see below). They will then be divided up into small groups where they will identify which prokaryotic cell feature would be a prime target for an antibiotic. The worksheet filled out will not be graded, but used by the students as a study guide.

● You body works to maintain an equal concentration of water in the fluid surrounding the cells as the water concentration in your cells. ● This way the amount of water moving into the cells is equal to amount of water moving out of the cells.

possible. (i.e. you want to get the white, starchy part of the potato, not the potato skin.) The slice should be only one or two cells thick, and should appear transparent. 2. Place the tissue slice in the center of your microscope slide, add a drop of water from a dropper bottle, and then place a cover slip over the preparation.

Parmecium are unicellular, ciliated protozoans (microscopic animals). Simple cilia cover the body, which allow the cell to move with a synchronous motion (like a caterpillar) at speeds of approximately 12 body lengths per second. There is also a deep oral groove containing inconspicuous tongue-like compound oral cilia used to draw food inside. They generally feed on bacteria and other small cells. Osmoregulation is carried out by a pair of contractile vacuoles, which actively expel water from the cell absorbed by osmosis from their surroundings. Paramecia are widespread in freshwater environments.

No, prokaryotes do not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are only found in eukaryotic cells. Eukaryote definition Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus and other organelles enclosed by a plasma membrane. Organelles are internal structures responsible for a variety of functions, such as energy production and protein synthesis

Chapter Summary The study of the three-dimensional organization of chromatin has recently gained much focus in the context of novel techniques for detecting genome-wide contacts using next- generation sequencing. These chromosome conformation capture-based methods give a deep topological insight into the architecture of the genome inside the nucleus. Several recent studies observe a compartmentalization of chromatin interactions into spatially confined domains. This structural feature of interphase chromosomes is not only supported by conventional studies assessing the interaction data of millions of cells, but also by analysis on the level of a single cell. We first present and examine the different models that have been proposed to elucidate these topological domains in eukaryotes. Then we show that a model which relies on the dynamic formation of loops within domains can account for the experimentally observed contact maps. Interestingly, the topological domain structure is not only found in mammalian genomes, but also in bacterial chromosomes.

JEB1604 Considering the importance of K + channels in controlling the crucial K + gradient across the plasma membranes of all living cells, it comes as no surprise that, besides being present in every eukaryotic cell, these integral membrane proteins have recently also been identified in prokaryotes. Today, approximately a dozen successfully completed and many more ongoing sequencing projects permit a search for genes related to K + channels in the genomes of both eubacteria and archaea. The coding regions of homologues show a remarkable variety in primary structure. They predict membrane proteins with one, two, three and six hydrophobic segments surrounding a putative K + -selective pore (H5) and the presence or absence of a cytosolic putative NAD + -binding domain

C. One of the cells develops into the other type of cell. D. One of the cells is more primitive than the other cell. ___ 5. The opening of the stomata allows water to evaporate from inside the leaf in a process known as transpiration. As this occurs, water molecules cling to one another and pull water in a continuous stream up the stem of the plant from the roots to the leaves. Which property of water makes this movement possible?

I n the past two chapters, you have explored the organelles that can be found in both plant and animal cells. You have also learned that plant cells contain an organelle that is not found in animal cells. Don’t forget... plant and animal cells are eukaryotic because they have organelles!
