Study Notes
Cell Characteristics
- Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
- Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome.
Ribosomes
- Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in a cell.
Endomembrane System
- The endomembrane system in eukaryotic cells consists of the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and vesicles.
- The Golgi apparatus is responsible for protein modification, sorting, and packaging in a eukaryotic cell.
Eukaryotic Cells
- Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
- Mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP in eukaryotic cells.
