Study Notes
Types of Cells
- There are two general types of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic, distinguished by the presence of a nucleus and how DNA is stored.
- All cells except bacteria are classified as eukaryotic cells, while bacterial cells fall under prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotic Cells
- Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus that protects and houses most of the cell's DNA.
- Typically larger than prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells are primarily found in multicellular organisms.
- Organisms composed of eukaryotic cells are called eukaryotes, which include fungi, animals, protists, and plants.
- Eukaryotic cells have various organelles that perform specific functions, enhancing their ability to carry out numerous activities compared to prokaryotic cells.
- Mitochondria in eukaryotic cells provide energy, while vacuoles store substances.
- Ribosomes, responsible for protein production, are present in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
Prokaryotic Cells
- Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus; their DNA is located in the cytoplasm without a nuclear membrane.
- Found in single-celled organisms, such as bacteria, prokaryotic cells are termed prokaryotes.
- Prokaryotes were the first type of organisms to evolve and remain the most abundant on Earth.
