Document Summary

Basic cellular structures: cytoplasm, cytoplasmic membrane, nucleus or nucleoid region, ribosomes (protein synthesis, cell wall- found in plants & most prokaryotes; not in animals. Two types of cells: prokaryote, bacteria & archaea simpler internal structure lack membrane-enclosed organelles, eukaryote, membrane enclosed organelles (nucleus, chloroplast, mitochondria, etc, algae, fungi, protozoa, plants, animals larger & more complex. Viruses: non-cellular, reproduce only inside a host cell, ex. The bacterial cell: cytoplasm surrounded by envelope, cytoplasm contains dna in nucleoid, envelope has lipid membrane boundary, plus structural cell wall. The bacterial cell wall (sacculus: made of peptidoglycan (murein) -- a porous cage-like structure sugar chains wrapped in circles around cell. Lipopolysaccharide: thin cell wall, amino acid crosslinks in peptidoglycan, thick periplasm, cytoplasmic membrane. Arrangement of dna in microbial cells: genome - a cell"s complete set of genes, dna is arranged to form chromosomes, prokaryotes - have a single circular chromosome and sometimes circular extrachromosomal.
