Unlike bacteria, eukaryotic pathogens have less
features that differ from host cells and thus
less targets to work with:
• e.g., ribosomes and other metabolic processes
are basically the same as ours
For this reason there are fewer drugs to turn to
in order to treat eukaryotic infections, however
there are some unique features with which to
target many eukaryotic pathogens.
What else can I help you with?
Cytoplasm has no organelle is that a description of archaea or bacteria?
That description is more characteristic of bacteria, as bacteria typically have a simpler cell structure with fewer organelles compared to eukaryotic cells. Archaea, on the other hand, can have structures that resemble organelles and have more complex cellular machinery.
Which cells contain fewer how many and why?
It seems there might be a typo in your question. If you meant to ask which cells contain fewer organelles or specific components, it typically refers to prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria. Prokaryotic cells generally contain fewer organelles compared to eukaryotic cells because they lack membrane-bound structures, which allows them to reproduce quickly and efficiently. Additionally, the simplicity of their structure enables them to thrive in various environments.
What are the visual differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells have small ribsomes, no mitachondria, no nucleus and fewer organelles
What are the differences between prokaryotic ribosomes and eukaryotic ribosomes?
Prokaryotic ribosomes are smaller (70S) compared to eukaryotic ribosomes (80S). Prokaryotic ribosomes consist of a 30S and a 50S subunit, while eukaryotic ribosomes consist of a 40S and a 60S subunit. Prokaryotic ribosomes have fewer proteins compared to eukaryotic ribosomes.
How is the DNA in prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukrayote?
Prokaryotic DNA is typically circular and located in the nucleoid region, lacking a membrane-bound nucleus. In contrast, eukaryotic DNA is linear and organized into chromosomes within a membrane-bound nucleus. Additionally, prokaryotic DNA often contains fewer introns and is usually associated with fewer proteins than eukaryotic DNA, which is more complex and includes a variety of regulatory sequences and histones.
What is the difference between a bacterial rIbosome and a eukaryotic ribosome?
Bacterial ribosomes are smaller (70S) compared to eukaryotic ribosomes (80S). Additionally, bacterial ribosomes have fewer proteins and do not have as many modification sites as eukaryotic ribosomes. The antibiotic targeting sites also differ between bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomes.

How is bacterial translation different from eukaryotic translation?
Bacterial translation occurs in the cytoplasm and has fewer post-translational modifications. Eukaryotic translation occurs in the cytoplasm and on the endoplasmic reticulum, and involves more complex regulatory mechanisms and additional processing steps.
How do the metabolic pathways of bacteria differ from the eukaryotic cell?
Pathways in prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells in that the pathways used by prokaryotes are much more versatile. They have several different methods by which they can metabolize. The internal structure of a eukaryote is meant only for glycolysis.

Additionally, the simplicity of their structure enables them to thrive in various environments.
Why drugs are becoming less effective?
The most commonly used antibiotics are becoming less effective, as the bacteria they are used against have, over time, developed resistant strains not so much affected by the antibiotic (survival of the fittest - natural selection. Yeah - even among bacteria!) One of the reasons for this is over-prescribing. Fewer and fewer doctors are doing this, but it may be too late already for some long-used antibiotics.

How are lysosomes distributed among different types of eukaryotic cells?
Lysosomes are distributed among different types of eukaryotic cells by their level of nutrients. Cells processing a high quantity of larger nutrients will generally have more lysosomes than other cells.
Disinfection in relation to patient care?
Disinfection reduces the amount of bacteria and germs patients come in contact with. With fewer germs, bacteria and viruses, patients can remain healthy longer.
How is the DNA in prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukrayote?
Prokaryotic DNA is typically circular and located in the nucleoid region, lacking a membrane-bound nucleus. In contrast, eukaryotic DNA is linear and organized into chromosomes within a membrane-bound nucleus. Additionally, prokaryotic DNA often contains fewer introns and is usually associated with fewer proteins than eukaryotic DNA, which is more complex and includes a variety of regulatory sequences and histones.
What causes antibiotic-associated colitis?
When antibiotics are given, most of the resident bacteria are killed. With fewer bacteria to compete with, the normally harmless Clostridia difficile grow rapidly and produce toxins.
