Microscopes! Electron microscopes have a much higher resolution than light microscopes. https://www.classzone.com/books/ml_science_share/vis_sim/chm05_pg19_microscope/chm05_pg19_microscope.swf http://web.biosci.utexas.edu/psaxena/MicrobiologyAnimations/Animations/Microscopy/micro_microscopy.swf

1. Molecules (1nm). 2. Cell membrane thickness (10nm). 3. Virus (100nm). 4. Bacteria (1um). 5. Organelles (less 10um). 6. Cells (<100 um). 7. Generally plant cells are larger than animal cells. http://intranet.canacad.ac.jp:3445/BiologyIBHL1/550 nm = nanometer μm = micrometer
4
Absence of organelles. There is no true nucleus. Some bacteria have flagellum.
5
Ultrastructure of E. coli. Drawing of the ultrastructure of prokaryotic cells based on electron micrographs Prokaryotes have a simple cell structure without compartmentalization. (With naked DNA) 70S
6
What are the functions of these prokaryotic cell parts?
8
Binary fission: Asexual method of reproduction. The cells produced are genetically identical (clones). Prokaryotes divide by binary fission
9
Drawing of the ultrastructure of eukaryotic cells based on electron micrographs. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Eukaryotes have a compartmentalized cell structure. Eukaryotic cell
11
Which structures can you identify in this false- coloured TEM (transmission electron microscopy) image?
12
