AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bacteria are microorganisms made up of a single prokaryotic cell. There are two general categories of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Sometimes, organisms are referred to as prokaryotes or eukaryotes, based on the type of cell(s) that compose them.

Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms belonging to the domains Bacteria and Archaea. Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, have no nucleus, and lack organelles. All prokaryotic cells are encased by a cell wall. Many also have a capsule or slime layer made of polysaccharide.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overview. There are two basic types of cells: prokaryotic cells, which lack a nucleus, and eukaryotic cells, which contain a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells are found in single-celled organisms, such as bacteria. Eukaryotic cells are found mainly in multicellular organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Most prokaryotes are small, single-celled organisms that have a relatively simple structure. Prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, but they have no internal membrane-bound organelles within their cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-5: -Prokaryotes are predominantly single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea. All prokaryotes have plasma membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and DNA that is not membrane-bound. Most have peptidoglycan cell walls and many have polysaccharide capsules. Prokaryotic cells range in diameter from 0.1 to 5.0 m.
