  2. Cell (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_(biology)

    Structure of a typical prokaryotic cell. Prokaryotes include bacteria and archaea, two of the three domains of life. Prokaryotic cells were the first form of life on Earth, characterized by having vital biological processes including cell signaling. They are simpler and smaller than eukaryotic cells, and lack a nucleus, and other membrane-bound ...

  3. Prokaryote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryote

    Diagram of a prokaryotic cell, a bacterium with a flagellum. A prokaryote (/ p r oʊ ˈ k ær i oʊ t,-ə t /; less commonly spelled procaryote) [1] is a single-celled organism whose cell lacks a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. [2]

  4. Cell biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_biology

    Cell biology (also cellular biology or cytology) is a branch of biology that studies the structure, function, and behavior of cells. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] All living organisms are made of cells. A cell is the basic unit of life that is responsible for the living and functioning of organisms. [ 3 ]

  5. File:Average prokaryote cell- en.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Average_prokaryote...

    English: A diagram of a typical prokaryotic cell. This diagram, made in Adobe Illustrator, is an improved version of a similar diagram, Prokaryote cell diagram.svg, which was also made by LadyofHats. Besides general appearance changes, this version adds plasmids and pili, and notes that DNA is circular.

  6. Prokaryotic DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryotic_DNA_replication

    Prokaryotic DNA Replication is the process by which a prokaryote duplicates its DNA into another copy that is passed on to daughter cells. [1] Although it is often studied in the model organism E. coli, other bacteria show many similarities. [2]

  8. Bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria

    Bacterial cells are about one-tenth the size of eukaryotic cells and are typically 0.5–5.0 micrometres in length. However, a few species are visible to the unaided eye—for example, Thiomargarita namibiensis is up to half a millimetre long, [ 37 ] Epulopiscium fishelsoni reaches 0.7 mm, [ 38 ] and Thiomargarita magnifica can reach even 2 cm ...

  9. Prokaryotic cytoskeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryotic_cytoskeleton

    The prokaryotic cytoskeletal elements are matched with their eukaryotic homologue and hypothesized cellular function. [1] The prokaryotic cytoskeleton is the collective name for all structural filaments in prokaryotes. [2] Some of these proteins are analogues of those in eukaryotes, while others are unique to prokaryotes.
