No. "Organelle" means "little organ". An organelle is like a little organ inside of a cell that does specific things to keep the cell alive.

Bacteria do not have organelles like eukaryotic cells do. Instead, they have specialized regions within the cell that perform specific functions, but these are not considered organelles. Examples include the nucleoid region where the DNA is located, ribosomes for protein synthesis, and cell membrane for transport and signaling.

Which cell organelle is responsible for the digestion of the bacteria?

I believe the answer you are looking for is lysosomes. Lysosomes are common in animal cells, but not so much in plants, and they contain hydrolytic enzymes that aid in intracellular digestion. Basically, when white blood cells eat bacteria, lysomes are released onto the bacteria, which kills them (and breaks them down.) The process is called necrotic cell death.


What cell organelle formed by the pseudopod?

The cell organelle formed by a pseudopod is called a phagosome. It is a membrane-bound vesicle that results from the engulfment of particles, such as bacteria or food, by the pseudopod during phagocytosis.


What organelle is used for photosynthesis?

Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy to produce glucose.


What type of organelle is it when it has a double membrane and the inner membrane is folded and it contains its own DNA?

That organelle is the mitochondrion. Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. The presence of their own DNA and double membrane suggests that mitochondria likely evolved from bacteria through endosymbiosis.


Where the hereditary material of the cell is held except in bacteria definition?

In eukaryotic cells, the hereditary material is held in the nucleus. The nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that houses the cell's DNA.

What organ moves bacteria?

That doesn't make sense. There is no organ that "moves" bacteria. What do you mean by that? I think you want flagella. An organelle of bacteria.


Does bacteria have a single membrane covered organelle?

No, bacteria do not have membrane-covered organelles. They lack membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, nucleus, and endoplasmic reticulum found in eukaryotic cells. Bacteria have a single cell membrane surrounding their cytoplasm.


What is the only non membrane bound organelle found in the cytoplasm of bacteria?

The only non-membrane bound organelle found in the cytoplasm of bacteria is ribosome. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in all living cells, including bacteria.

Bacteria are much smaller than most?

Bacteria is typically smaller than Eukaryotes. In fact, Eukaryotes have an organelle called the mitochondria which resemble an enveloped bacteria.


Do bacteria have smooth er?

No, bacteria do not have smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Smooth ER is a cell organelle found in eukaryotic cells, not in prokaryotic cells like bacteria.
