Prokaryotic cells have no membranous organelles and their activity takes place in the membrane. The way they receive nutrients can be autotrophic and heterotrophic.
Composition
- One of the distinctive elements of a prokaryotic cell is that it lacks a nucleus. Instead it has a nucleoid, an irregular region located inside the cells.
Nucleoid
Function
- This is where DNA is found.
Function
- Organelles in the cytoplasm, responsible for protein synthesis.
ribosomes
Funtion
- Regulates the entry and exit of substances into the cell.
Composition
- In some places, the plasma membrane folds inwards forming mesosomes, structures involved in cellular respiration and reproduction.
