What else can I help you with?
What is a unique feature of prokaryotic cells?
they do not have a membrane-enclosed nucleus
What orgenelles are found only in prokaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, or Golgi apparatus. Instead, they have ribosomes, flagella, pili, and a nucleoid region where the DNA is located.
What are the 4 components that all prokaryotic cells have?
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.
What distinguishes eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic cells?
Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus containing their genetic material, while prokaryotic cells do not. Eukaryotic cells also contain membrane-bound organelles, like mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, which are absent in prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are generally larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells.
What kind of cells are bacteria made of?
Bacteria are prokaryotic cells, meaning they lack a true nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. They typically contain a cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and a single circular chromosome that contains their genetic material. Some bacteria may also have flagella for movement or pili for attachment to surfaces.
What are the differences between pili and cilia other than the differences in their function?
They are almost the same but the pilus or pili extends. although, the pilus or pili and the cilia had the same use. _marcelo anzano_ Pili are found on prokaryotic cells. Cilia are found on eukaryotic cells.
Does pili move the prokaryotic cell?
The fallagemum and pili

Bacterial pili are important for?
Pili is a hair like structure present on prokaryotic cells. The advantages of this structure is that it enables the prokaryote to attach itself to surfaces and cells where the prokaryotic cell can obtain nutrients crucial for its survival. Also by being able to attach to surfaces and other cells the prokaryote can live in an environment which is best suited and replicate efficiently by binary fission.
What is the composition of prokaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells are, much like eukaryotic cells, filled with proteins, DNA, and other assorted chemicals. However, unlike a eukaryotic cell, prokaryotic cells lack a membrane-bound nucleus, and all its organelles are likewise not membrane bound.
What structures are involved in sexual reproduction in prokaryotic cells?
Pili are plasma membrane extensions that serve to allow joining of bacterial cells so that exchange of DNA between cells may occur, thus bringing about sexual reproduction.
What are prokaryotic cells reproduced by?
Other prokaryotic cells
Is true of prokaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells do NOT have a nucleus.
