Question
cell theory
- all living things are made of
although all living things are made of cells, organisms may be:
unicellular - composed of cell
multicellular - composed of cells that may organize into tissues → organ systems
- cells are the basic unit of life.
it is the smallest part of an organism that is still capable of all of life’s processes.
two types
| prokaryotic | eukaryotic | |
|---|---|---|
| membrane - bound organelles? | no | |
| division? | binary fission | |
| size of organisms? | uni - or multicellular | |
| cell walls? | yes, made of peptidoglycan | only fungi and made of chitin or cellulose |
| ex. of organisms with this type of cell? | plants, fungi, protists |
all cells have material (dna or rna)
- cytoplasm
- cell membrane
- all cells come from other cells.
all cells have these four structure, but eukaryotic cells also have membrane - bound
Brief Explanations
- The first blank is 'cells' as the cell - theory states all living things are made of cells.
- Unicellular organisms are composed of one cell.
- Multicellular organisms are composed of many cells which can organize into tissues, organs, and organ systems.
- Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells have one.
- Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane - bound organelles.
- Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission.
- Eukaryotic organisms can be uni - or multicellular.
- Prokaryotic cell walls are made of peptidoglycan, while in eukaryotes, only fungi and plants have cell walls made of chitin or cellulose.
- Examples of eukaryotic organisms are plants, fungi, and protists.
- All cells have genetic material (DNA or RNA), cytoplasm, and a cell membrane.
- All cells come from other cells, and eukaryotic cells have membrane - bound organelles in addition to the basic four structures.
