Living cells have cell membranes, genetic material, cytoplasm & ribosomes in COMMON.
So you should be able to see the cytoplasm (inside the cell), the cell membrane, an area with DNA called a nucleoid (meaning nucleus-like) and ribosomes. Some prokaryotes have a cell wall around the cell membrane.
The nucleus.
The two structures that surround the prokaryotic cell are the cell membrane or plasma membrane and the cytoskeleton. All prokaryotic cells contain these.
cell membrane
In a eukaryotic cell, the structures in the nucleus made up of DNA and protein are called chromosomes, which play a crucial role in cell division and genetic information storage. In a prokaryotic cell, the main ring of DNA is referred to as the nucleoid, which contains the organism's genetic material but is not enclosed by a membrane. While eukaryotic chromosomes are linear and organized within a nuclear envelope, prokaryotic DNA is typically circular and free-floating within the cell.
In a Prokaryotic cell, these structures are the flagella.
Bacteria are prokaryotes. Viruses are not living organisms and have no domain.
Eukaryotic translates as "true nucleus" meaning that eukayotic cells have a membrane bound nucleus as well as membrane bound organells. Prokaryotic cells lack those internal membrane bound structures and accomplish all their functions within the cytoplasm of the cell.
The mitochondria.
Yes, pili are found in prokaryotic cells. They are hair-like structures that extend from the cell surface and are involved in processes such as adhesion, motility, and genetic exchange.
Prokaryotic cell movement is mainly attributed to structures called flagella, which are long whip-like appendages that rotate like a propeller to propel the cell forward. Some prokaryotic cells also move using pili, which are shorter, hair-like structures that help to attach to surfaces and pull the cell along.
When a bacteria cell lacks a nucleus (like most bacteria do), it is said to be a prokaryotic cell.
External structures of a prokaryotic cell include glycocalyces, flagella, fimbriae, and pili. Most prokaryotic cells have a cell wall. Prokaryotic cells have a cytoplasmic membrane, cytosol, and inclusions. The nonmembranous organelles found in a prokaryotic cell are ribosomes and the cytoskeleton.
