• ribosomes are small
  - free in the cytoplasm as there is no ER
• cell wall includes peptidoglycan
• flagella are made of a single protein
• no mitosis or meiosis

Question 2

Eukaryotic cells

Answer 2

• with a nucleus
  - all other cell are examples
• DNA is associated with protein
  - forming chromosomes
• membrane bound organelles are found
• ribosomes are larger
• cell wall made of cellulose
• flagella complex and made of two protein
