1. DNA (Deoxynucleic acid)
Periplasmic Space
Chemical reactions take place to allow substances to be transported into or out of the cell.
THE BACTERIAL CELL
Cytoplasm
Where proteins carry out chemical reactions, important for the workings of the cell to take place (the factory floor).
Cell Membrane
Controls what enters
and leaves the cell.
Ribosomes
Make proteins using the coded instructions hidden in the DNA sequence.
Flagella
Allows the cell to swim
and move around.
Outer membrane
Tough layer giving the cell shape and protecting the cell from damage.
DNA (Deoxynucleic acid)
The code that tells the cell how to form all of the proteins it needs, including how to make another copy of itself.
Pilli (fimbriae) For bacteria to attach themselves
to things such as your cells.
