Prokaryotic and Eukarytotic cells Flashcards
Where are Eukaryotic cells found
They are found in plants animals fungi and protists
How big are Eukaryotic cells
10 - 100 micrometres
How big are Prokaryotic cells
0.1 - 5.0 micrometres in size
Which sub-cellular structures (structures inside the cell) are found in all eukaryotic cells?
A Nucleus, Cell membrane and a Cytoplasm
What’s the difference Between a Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cell
Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus.
Prokaryotic cells have no membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have various organelles such as mitochondria, Golgi body, and endoplasmic reticulum.
Prokaryotic cells are single-celled micro-organisms, while eukaryotic cells can be single-celled or multi-celled.
