Prokaryotic
Animal and Plant cells are both multicellular/unicellular AND Eukaryotic/Prokaryotic
Multicellular and Eukaryotic
List 2 differences and 2 similarities of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells!
Similarity - Ribosomes, cell membrane, can be unicellular,
Differences - Prok unicellular, Euk uni or multicellular, prok - no membrane bound organelles, no nucleus, euk more complex
