Prokaryotic Cells • oldest single-celled organisms • most common cell • found almost everywhere • no true nucleus • bacteria
Cell Wall • rigid and inflexible wall • thick, tough, fibrous barrier • very porous • Supports and protects the cell
Plasma Membrane • flexible boundary • lipid bilayer • maintains homeostasis • selectively permeable • allows nutrients, ions, and other substances across the membrane through protein channels
Cytoplasm • clear, gelatinous fluid • contains all the necessary parts of a prokaryotic cell • composed mostly of water
Ribosomes • floats freely in the cytoplasm • receive and translate genetic information • site for protein synthesis Actual structure of a ribosome
Nucleoid • region of DNA • DNA is condensed into a circular loop PLASMID • How is this different from • a nucleus?
long projections • produce whip-like motions • major means of locomotion/movement for cell Flagella
Site of protein synthesis Contained in the nucleoid, condensed into circular loop called PLASMID Gel-like fluid in cell, mostly composed of water Major means of locomotion Supports and protects the cell Selectively permeable to maintain homeostasis
Quick Review ___ Most unicellular organisms, such as bacteria, that do not have membrane bound organelles. PROKARYOTE ___ Site for protein synthesis. RIBOSOME ___ Maintains homeostasis by its selective permeability. PLASMA MEMBRANE ___ Supports and protects the cell CELL WALL ___ Coaled up DNA into a circular loop. PLASMID ___ Long projections that move with a whip-like motion. FLAGELLA ___The region of the cell that contains genetic information. NUCLEIOD ___Gelatinous-like fluid mostly composed of water.
