Question

10. Define the following terms:

a. Nucleoid-
b. Mesosomes -
d. Capsid -
e. Plasmalemma-​

Answer 1

a. nucleoid - It is an irregulary shaped region within the procaryotic cell that contains all or most of the genetic material.

b. Mesosomes - these are folded invaginations in the plasma membrane of the bacteria that are produced by the chemical fixation techniques used to prepare samples for electron microscopy.

c. Caspid - a caspid is the protien shell of a virus, enclosing its genetic material.

d. Plasmalemma - It is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outsise environment which protect the cell from its environment.

Answer 2

Alright, sure thing.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Nucleoid- The nucleoid (meaning nucleus-like) is an irregularly-shaped region within the cell of a prokaryote that contains all or most of the genetic material.

b. Mesosomes- Mesosomes or chondrioids are folded invaginations in the plasma membrane of bacteria that are produced by the chemical fixation techniques used to prepare samples for electron microscopy.

d. Capsid- A capsid is the protein shell of a virus, enclosing its genetic material.

e. Plasmalemma-​ The cell membrane is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment which protects the cell from its environment.
