Talk:Cell (biology)/to do

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  • all cells have "traffic of vesicles." Is that true for prokaryotes?
  • multicellular organisms have cells that "do not generally survive" when separated. Can't most plants do that? Or sponges?
  • in the "cytoplasm" section, it says that all eukaryotes have cytoskeletons and implies that no prokaryotes do. Can someone confirm this?
  • is the description of processes like transcription and translation general enough to include all organisms, including prokaryotes?
  • Are the distinctions between prokaryotes and eukaryotes as clear as they should be? Is everything about the prokaryotes right?
  • can the line about "prokaryotic cells have three architectural regions..." be improved?
  • Is the prokaryotic cytoplasm more "granular" than in eukaryotes? Both kinds have ribosomes floating around...
  • Is the typical cell size 10 micrometers diameter, or is it the radius?
  • I think the phrase "The largest known cell is an ostrich egg." should read "The largest known cell is in an ostrich egg." --The7longs 22:12, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I disagree-I think the sentence should read "The largest known cell is an ostrich egg "cell"" i.e. before fertilisation, just like the largest cell in the human body is the egg cell (after fertiliastion both ostrich and human egg cells cease to be single cells). I do agree that the sentence is ambiguous though.
  • Theres a broken code of some sort above the cytoplasm bold heading that should be fixed. (10/09/07)
