Question

Define the cellular components found in prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes & animal vs. plant and B) identify which components are similar and different between prokaryotes v. eukaryotes & animal v. plant.

Answer 1

Ans.

Cellular components of prokaryotes -- circular DNA, ribosomes, cytosol, plasma membrane, nucleoid

Cellular components of eukaryotes -- Nucleus, cell organelles including mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, golgi bodies, plasma membrane, cytosol, histone protein in DNA,

Cellular components found in animals -- Nucleus, cell organelles including mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi bodies, cytosol, histone proteins in DNA, linear DNA

Cellular components found in plants -- Nucleus, cell organelles including mitochondria, ribosomes, rough endoplasmic reticulum, Smooth endoplasmic reticulum, golgi bodies, cytosol, plastids, histone protein in DNA, linear DNA, cellulose cell wall

Difference between cellular components of prokaryotes and eukaryotes -- Prokaryotes have no cell organelles, nucleoid is present, circular DNA is present, no histone protein present whereas eukaryotes have nucleus, cell organelles, linear DNA, histone proteins.

Similarities between cellular components of prokaryotes and eukaryotes -- Ribosomes, plasma membrane, cytosol are present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Differences between cellular components of animals and plants -- Plant cells possess plastids, cellulosic cell wall whereas animal cells have no plastids, cell wall is absent.

Similarities between cellular components of animals and plants -- Both plant cell and animal cell have nucleus, cell organelles, plasma membrane, linear DNA, histone proteins.
