Prokaryotic cell structure and functions""; ""a) The cell wall of prokaryotes""; ""b) The prokaryotic plasmic (inner) membrane is a multi-purpose organ""; ""c) Prokaryotic ribosomes differ from those of eukaryotes""; ""d) Capsules and glycocalyces""; ""e) DNA in the prokaryotic cell""; ""f) Prokaryotic spores are a survival form of extraordinary resistance"" ""2.
