Prokaryotic Cells Vs. Eukaryotic Cells


Prokaryotic Cells

Prokaryote is a cell or an organism that lacks a nucleus and other membrane enclosed organelles and most of their DNA is a single circular molecule.

All bacteria are prokaryotic cells.

The word "prokaryote" means "before the nucleus"










Eukaryotic Cells
Eukaryote refers to a cell or an organism having a unite membrane enclosed nucleus and usually with organelles.

Protozoans, Fungi, Plants, and Animals are all eukaryotic.

The word "Eukaryote" came means "True Nucleus"



Similarities:

The common features of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are:

- Prokaryotes Vs Eukaryotes
While eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells have some characteristics in common, they diverged from their common ancestor billions of years ago, thus accounting for significant differences in overall structure and function. Here we will go over them....
