Culinary. Several Salvia species are used in recipes around the world. In addition to the common Salvia officinalis, some people favor a tri-color variety, a purple sage or a golden variety of culinary sage for their beauty and good taste.
Animals, plants, fungi, protozoans, and algae all possess eukaryotic cell types. Only bacteria have prokaryotic cell types. Prokaryotic cells are generally much smaller and more simple than eukaryotic (see Fig. 1). Prokaryotic cells are, in fact, able to be structurally more simple because of their small size.
Based on the organization of their cellular structures, all living cells can be divided into two groups: prokaryotic and eukaryotic (also spelled procaryotic and eucaryotic). Animals, plants, fungi, protozoans, and algae all possess eukaryotic cell types. Only bacteria have prokaryotic cell types. Eukaryotic cells are generally much larger and more complex than prokaryotic. Because of their larger size, they require a variety of specialized internal membrane-bound organelles to carry out metabolism, provide energy, and transport chemicals throughout the cell. Eukaryotic cells contain a variety of internal membrane-bound organelles that are not a part of the endomembrane system. These include mitochondria, chloroplasts, lysosomes, peroxisomes, vacuoles, and vesicles. We will now look at chloroplasts.
