Study Notes

Cell Classifications and Characteristics

  • Cells are distinguished by specific characteristics such as structure, function, and organelles.
  • A primary characteristic that differentiates classes of cells is the presence or absence of a nucleus.

Prokaryotic Cells

  • Prokaryotic cells typically lack a nucleus, containing their genetic material in a region called the nucleoid.
  • This class includes bacteria and archaea.

Photosynthetic Cells

  • Plant cells are known for their ability to perform photosynthesis.
  • Chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, are the organelles responsible for capturing light energy.

Animal Cells

  • Animal cells do not typically possess a rigid cell wall, which distinguishes them from plant and fungal cells.
  • They primarily rely on a flexible plasma membrane for structure.

Shared Characteristics of Plant and Fungal Cells

  • Both plant and fungal cells have a cell wall, providing support and protection.
  • They also share similar cellular structures, including vacuoles and ribosomes.
