Eukaryotic cells vs Prokaryotic cells

Question 1

Prokaryotic cell

Answer 1

• No membrane bound organelles
• peptidoglycan based cell wall
• DNA held on circular chromosomes
• DNA contained within the cytoplasm.
• May have a Flagella
• Small ribosomes (70s)
• Does not have a nucleus
• Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis.

Question 2

Eukaryotic Cell

Answer 2

• Has membrane bound organelle
• Cellulose based cell wall
• DNA held on linear chromosomes
  -DNA located within the nucleus
• ATP production occurs in mitochondria
• May have undulipodia
• Large (70s) Ribosomes
• Has a nucleus
• Have a phospholipid bi-layer cell membrane
