1. Cell Types Mrs. Harlin

2. 1.1.2 Compare prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells in terms of their general structures (plasma membrane and genetic material) and degree of complexity.

3. Microscopes Light Microscope – Uses lens and light to magnify objects. Total magnification is obtain by multiplying the magnification power of the ocular and objective lens. Electron Microscope – Use a beam of electrons that allow scientists to view a universe too small to be seen with a light microscope.

6. 2 Types of Cells Prokaryotes- NO membrane bound organelles. Ex: bacteria Eukaryotes- HAS membrane bound organelles. Ex: plants, animals, fungi, and protists.

7. Prokaryotes NO- mitochondria, nucleus, vacuole, chloroplast! Less complex cells that are generally smaller.

8. Eukaryotes HAS- mitochondria, nucleus, vacuole, and chloroplasts (plant only). More complex and generally larger.

9. Comparison Both have: – Ribosomes (to make proteins) – Plasma membrane (outer layer) – Chromosomes- DNA and RNA – DNA is found in circular strands in prokaryotes called plasmids.
