The Eukaryotic Organism Of Protista

Prokaryotes are ubiquitous, successfully adapting to diverse environments as well as developing symbiotic relationships with host organisms (Lengeler, Drews, & Schlegel, 1999). Prokaryotes may have both autotrophic and heterotrophic characteristics. A cyanobacteria is photosynthetic, commonly called blue-green algae, and may produce toxins (Crayton, 1993). Bacteria are most commonly associated in the general

Cells, a unique characteristic of life and the start of humanity at its finest. Discovered in 1653, by a man named of Robert Hooke, coined the term Cells and was credited with it as well. The scientist said it reminded him of the cells of a monastery. These building blocks of life could be broken down into several different parts but the main two parts are prokaryote and eukaryote. Prokaryotes are one celled organisms such as bacteria. Prokaryotes are able to thrive in very harsh conditions including hydrothermal vents, hot springs, swamps, wetlands, and even the guts of humans and animals, called extremophiles. Prokaryotes contain a set amount of organelles in which are a cell wall, DNA, and cytoplasm. They do not reside a nucleus, but contains

A single-celled eukaryote or protist can carry chlorophyll (it can be an autotrophic, photosynthetic, "alga"), it can eat other organisms (it can be an organotrophic, "protozoan" "animal"), or it may do both.

There are two different types of cells; prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Both cells have differences, including the shape and size of the cell. Prokaryote cells are found in bacteria such as E-coli, Streptococcus and Staphylococcus, whilst eukaryote cells are found in plants, animals and fungi. Eukaryotic cells have many components which lead to the cell having a much more complex structure and are larger in size, measuring between 10 and 100 micrometres in diameter. Prokaryotic cells, on the other hand, are much smaller, measuring between 0.2 and 2 micrometres and having a much simpler structure. The two cells share similarities such as; containing DNA, ribosomes and cytoplasms. According to Bassett, “The ribosomes are “told,” what kind of protein to make and when to make it via the direction of the DNA.” [Bassett. Dawsonera.com. P. 83. 2005.] DNA in a prokaryotic cell is described to be a single circular chromosome, whereas the eukaryotic cell has multiple linear chromosomes. However, the main comparison between the two cells is that the eukaryotic cell contains a nucleus, whereas the prokaryotic cell lacks a nucleus.

There are two main types of cells in the world. The simplest cells such as bacteria are known as Prokaryotic cells, and human cells are known as Eukaryotic cells. The main difference between each of these cells is that a eukaryotic cell has a nucleus and a membrane bound section in which the cell holds the main DNA which are building blocks of life.

It is true that Protists have specialized organelles that cannot be found in other eukaryotic cells. According to OpenStax (2015), most protists are unicellular microscopic organisms that can be found in the soil, freshwater, and marine environments. It is all about the environment for some eukaryotes. For instance, there is a general concept that eukaryotes have a mitochondrion which serves as the powerhouse of the cell. However, when the environment in which the eukaryote is located lack sufficient oxygen, they also lack mitochondria and instead enclose an alternative form of an organelle called a hydrogenosome (Embley et al., 2003). This organelle is present in Trichomonas Vaginalis, a primitive protist (Johnson, Lahti & Bradley, 1993).

The Animal kingdom is made up of beings with Eukaryotic cells, meaning they have a fully formed nucleus and most of the common organelles of a cell. They are also Multicellular, meaning they have more than one cell. These organisms are Heterotrophs, so they must find their own food, by eating other organisms. They can’t make their own food.The plant kingdom contains Multicellular beings with Eukaryotic cells. The plants are also autotrophs meaning they make their own food (excepting the hydra which does eat other organisms). They use Photosynthesis to turn sunlight and nutrients into food. They are green because the contain chlorophyll to help them create food.

Since they do not contain a nucleus they would be in the prokaryotic domain. They would need to be from the kingdoms Bacteria Specifically Eubacteria. They use photosynthesis to produce their own food. This animal is most likely Prochlorococcus. This is the most abundant photosynthetic cell in the ocean. Another one is cyanobacteria or blue green algae, but they are prokaryotic unlike algae. They could be grouped by their shapes like cyanobacteria are spherical, rod, and spiral. They can also be grouped as photosynthetic since they have

“Eukaryotic cells are complex and include all animal and plant cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler, e.g. Bacteria” - (AQA 2008)

KINGDOM PROTISTA: These organisms are placed here more because of what they are not than what they are. Kingdom Protista contains all Eukaryotes that are NOT Plants, Animal, or Fungi, more than 50,000 species in all. Kingdom Protista includes unicellular and a few simple multicellular Eukaryotes. Eukaryotic cells have nuclei and organelles that are surrounded by membranes.

Cells are the most basic unit of life known in the world today. While they are basic and small, they come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Two key cell types include prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Both living cell types work to form every living organism in the environment. However, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells hold many key factors that differentiate them from one another. These key differences include shape, domain, transportation, division as well as many other structural and functional differences. While these cells are different in most structural and functional factors there are many minute similarities to all cells. Despite sharing an evolutionary relationship, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells differ in factors such as size and

The trophozoite of N fowleri consists of an amoeba surrounded by a two-layer membrane. The cytoplasm contains free and bound ribosomes, as well as membrane-bound organelles. A smooth endoplasmic reticulum, a Golgi-like structure, mitochondria, vacuoles, and nucleus-containing nuclear envelope are present. Microfilaments create a supportive cytoskeleton. The N fowleri flagellate is pear-shaped. The cytoplasm has fewer vacuoles, and the components of a flagellar apparatus (flagellum, basal body, rootlet) are present. The spherical cyst is enclosed in a mucous-sealed porous cell wall. The cytoplasm contains enlarged mitochondria and the nucleolus is less pronounced.

Within prokaryotes and eukaryotes there are various similarities, but also differences. First, prokaryotes are cells without a true nucleus. Instead they have a nucleoid that houses their DNA. Eukaryotes on the other hand are cells with a nucleus and a nuclear membrane. Along with the nuclear membrane, eukaryotes also have membrane bound organelles. These organelles allow for complex compartmentalization. Prokaryotes have no membrane bound organelles, which causes them to be simplistic and lack internal compartmentalization. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes both have a cell wall that determines their shape and protects the cell. However, the cell walls differ in structure. Eukaryotes do not have peptidoglycan in their cell wall, whereas some prokaryotes

Well prokaryote is the name given to organisms that are made up from cells that lack a cell nucleus or cells that lack any membrane-encased organelles (a specialized subunit within a cell). In lamens terms, in prokaryotes, the DNA is not bound or held together inside a nucleus. Prokaryotes also only have a single loop DNA. Last but not least prokaryotes are divided into groups or domains but more about that in a minute.

Climate change will not only accelerate the species extinction rate, but also bring a higher chances of survival of certain endangered species, which indicates that the impact of climate change on biodiversity is double-sided (Bellard et al. 2012).
