Question

what is the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Answer 1

~ Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus, bound by a double membrane. Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus.
~ Eukaryotic DNA is linear; prokaryotic DNA is circular (it has no ends).
~ Eukaryotic DNA is complexed with proteins called "histones," and is organized into chromosomes; prokaryotic DNA is "naked," meaning that it has no histones associated with it, and it is not formed into chromosomes.
~ Both cell types have many, many ribosomes, but the ribosomes of the eukaryotic cells are larger and more complex than those of the prokaryotic cell.
~ The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells is filled with a large, complex collection of organelles, many of them enclosed in their own membranes; the prokaryotic cell contains no membrane-bound organelles which are independent of the plasma membrane.
~ Eukaryotic Cells are the largest Cells, while prokaryotic Cells are smaller than eukaryotic Cells. A eukaryotic Cell is about 10 times bigger than a prokaryotic Cell.
~ Eukaryotic Cells have a bi-lipid-layer plasma membrane and an exterior glyco-callyx Cell Coat; prokaryotic Cells have a bi-lipid-layer plasma membrane and an exterior mostly cellulosic Cell Wall.

Answer 2

Eukayrotic cell- true nucleus, Prokaryotic- pseudo(false) nucleus
