Eukaryotic cells â those that make up cattails and apple trees, mushrooms and dust mites, halibut and readers of Scitable â have evolved ways to partition off different functions to various locations in the cell. In fact, specialized compartments called organelles exist within eukaryotic cells for this purpose.ithin eukaryotic cells, mitochondria function somewhat like batteries, because they convert energy from one form to another: food nutrients to ATP. Accordingly, cells with high metabolic needs can meet their higher energy demands by increasing the number of mitochondria they contain.
Honestly, we could come up with reasons all day, but the simple fact is that eukaryotic cells are up first. C'est la vie. Eukaryotic Cell Structure and Function A cell is defined as eukaryotic if it has a membrane-bound nucleus. Any organism composed of eukaryotic cells is also considered a eukaryotic organism. Case in point: you. Oh, and all other people, too. Biologists do not know of any organism that is composed of both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
