    Study Notes

    Reserve Material in Prokaryotic Cells

    • In prokaryotic cells, reserve materials are stored in the cytoplasm in the form of inclusion bodies.
    • These inclusion bodies are not bound by any membrane system.
    • Instead, they lie free in the cytoplasm.
    • Examples of inclusion bodies include:
      • Phosphate granules
      • Cyanophycean granules
      • Glycogen granules
