Q

Differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes- DNA

A

prokaryotes

  • DNA is not enclosed within a membrane
  • DNA is singular and circularly arranged chromosome
  • No histones in DNA

Eukaryotes

  • DNA is found in cells nucleus
  • DNA is found in multiple chromosomes
  • DNA can have chromosomal proteins histones and nonhistones

Q

Differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes- cell division

A

prokaryote- cells divide by binary division (DNA is copied, cell splits into two cells)
