© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. . Prokaryotic cells are characterized by having

. No nucleus . DNA in an unbound region called the nucleoid

. No membrane-bound organelles

. Cytoplasm bound by the plasma membrane

© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Eukaryotic cells are characterized by having • DNA in a nucleus that is bounded by a membranous nuclear envelope • Membrane-bound organelles • Cytoplasm in the region between the plasma membrane and nucleus Eukaryotic cells are generally much larger than prokaryotic cells

The cell wall is an extracellular structure that distinguishes plant cells from animal cells

Plant cell walls Prokaryotes, are made of fungi, and cellulose fibers some embedded in unicellular other eukaryotes also polysaccharides have cell walls and protein

The cell wall protects the plant cell, maintains its shape, and prevents excessive uptake of water

© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Plant cell walls may have multiple layers • Primary cell wall: Relatively thin and flexible • Middle lamella: Thin layer between primary walls of adjacent cells • Secondary cell Plasmodesmata wall (in some are channels cells): Added between between the adjacent plant plasma membrane cells and the primary cell wall

© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The Extracellular Matrix (ECM) of Animal Cells . Animal cells lack cell walls but are covered by an elaborate extracellular matrix (ECM)

. The ECM is made up of glycoproteins such as collagen, proteoglycans, and fibronectin . ECM proteins bind to receptor proteins in the plasma membrane called integrins

. Plasmodesmata are channels that perforate plant cell walls . Through plasmodesmata, water and small solutes (and sometimes proteins and RNA) can pass from cell to cell Cell walls

Three types of cell junctions are common in epithelial tissues

At tight junctions, Gap junctions membranes of neighboring Desmosomes (anchoring (communicating junctions) cells are pressed together, junctions) fasten cells provide cytoplasmic preventing leakage of together into strong sheets channels between adjacent extracellular fluid cells
