Study Notes

Bacterial Cell Characteristics

  • Morphology refers to the shape of a bacterial cell.
  • Arrangement refers to the style of grouping bacterial cells.
  • Colony morphology refers to the visible characteristics of a bacterial colony.
  • Microscopy is required to observe bacterial cell morphology.

Bacterial Cell Shapes

  • Pleomorphic cells have an irregular shape.
  • Coccobacillus is a bacterial cell shape that is a combination of a coccus and a bacillus.

Cell Walls and Eukaryotes

  • Not all eukaryotes contain a cell wall.
  • Flagella are not exclusive to prokaryotes and can be found in eukaryotes as well.
  • Not all eukaryotes are single-celled organisms.
  • The cell wall composition is different between eukaryotes and prokaryotes.

Golgi Organelle

  • The Golgi organelle is responsible for protein modification, sorting, and packaging.
