Document Summary

How does a cell work? (21. 3: cell membranes. Individual molecules: specific materials, channels- doorways between the inner materials of the cell and the outer part, phospholipids have membrane lipid bilayer- carbohydrate chains and receptors, receptors, bind molecules, cell wall, plants. The nucleus: nucleus contains genetic material, prokaryotes have no nucleus, eukaryotes have nucleus- more complex cell, double membrane around nucleus. Terms related to cells and single-celled organisms (table 21. 1) Archaea- one of carl woese"s three domains of life; all archaea are prokaryotes, and all are also members of the kingdom monera. Bacteria- one of carl woese"s three domains of life; all bacteria are prokaryotes and all are also members of the kingdom monera. Note that bacteria (not capitalized) is also sometimes used as a general term for microbes. Eucarya- one of carl woese"s three domains of life; eucarya include all of the single-celled kingdom of protista, as well as the three multicelled kingdoms: fungi, plants, and animals.
