In this article we will discuss about the structure of plasma membrane in bacterial cell. This will also help you to draw the structure and diagram of plasma membrane. Structure of Plasma Membrane: The plasma membrane is approximately 7.5 nm (0.0075 µm) thick, forms the limiting boundary of the cell and is made up of phospholipids (about 20-30%) and proteins [...]
In this article we will discuss about the structure and components of bacterial cell. Structure of Bacterial Cell: Bacterial cells (prokaryotic cells) are structurally much simpler than eukaryotic cells and the two cell types are compared in Table 3.2. They consists of various cell surface structures, cell wall, plasma membrane, many cytoplasmic inclusions, and the bacterial chromosome (nucleoid). Except some, [...]
In this article we will discuss about:-1. Size of Bacterial Cell 2. Shape of Bacterial Cell 3. Arrangement. Size of Bacterial Cells: Individual bacterial cells are not visible to the unaided eye. In general, bacterial cells do not exceed 1 μm (micrometer or micron) in diameter, though their length may vary widely. Some bacteria discovered in recent years, are much [...]
