Q1, 2 and 4 need better structure. some information is there but not put tother properly. Re-submit by making changes if you understand what I am talking about if not,see me before you do it.
Q1. Compare and contrast a bacterium with an animal cell based on their structure and function.
Bacteria
A cell membrane, usually surrounded by a cell wall and sometimes by an additional outer layer.
An internal cytoplasm with ribosomes, a nuclear region, and in some cases granules and/or vesicles.
External structures, such as capsules, flagella, and pili.
In general, cells (which include prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells) have a main purpose: to survive. In eukaryotic cells, their shapes often reflect their functions. For example, nerve cells have long extensions that reach out in various directions in order to allow the cell to send and receive nerve impulses. Another example is skin cells. Since skin cells are flat and plate-like, they help cover and protect the surface of the body. As organisms evolve into more advanced organisms, their cells become more specialized and eventually were unable to survive independently. Groups of cells that carry out a similar function is called a tissue. Groups of tissues that perform a particular job form an organ. Groups of organs that perform related tasks form organ systems. Finally, groups of organ systems combine to form an organism.
In other words, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells try to keep the organism alive.

Q2. What is bacterial metabolism? List differences between anabolism and catabolism
microorganisms capture energy, and obtain carbon, can be classified as
autotrophy self-feeding use carbon dioxide (inorganic) to
synthesize organic molecules.
Photoautotrophs: energy from light
Chemoautotrophs: energy from oxidizing simple inorganic
substances such as sulfides and nitrites.
heterotrophy other-feeding get their carbon from ready-made organic molecules, which they obtain from other organisms, living or dead.
Photoheterotrophs: chemical energy from light
Chemoheterotrophs: chemical energy from breaking down ready-made organic compounds.
Metabolism: is the sum of all the chemical processes carried out by living organisms
Anabolism: requires energy to synthesize complex molecules from simpler ones. Catabolism: release energy by breaking complex molecules into simpler ones.
Q4. Cell membrane is a selective barrier. Describe different mechanism of transport across cell membranes in bacteria.
The mechanisms by which substances move across membranes can be passive or active.
passive transport: no energy required to move substances downa higher to lower concentration gradient.
simple diffusion
facilitated diffusion
osmosis
active processes:calledactive transport: the cell expends energy from ATP, enabling it to transport substances against a concentration gradient.
