1st pd Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic Cells

Front

What are prokaryotic cells?

Back

Prokaryotic cells are simple, single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Examples include bacteria and archaea.

Front

What are eukaryotic cells?

Back

Eukaryotic cells are complex cells that contain a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. They can be single-celled or multicellular, such as plants, animals, and fungi.

Do prokaryotic cells have a nucleus?

Back

No, prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.

Front

Do eukaryotic cells have a nucleus?

Back

Yes, eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that contains their genetic material.

Front

What is the main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Back

The main difference is that prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have both.

Front

Can prokaryotic cells be multicellular?

Back

No, prokaryotic cells are always unicellular.

Front

Can eukaryotic cells be unicellular?

Back

Yes, some eukaryotic cells, like yeast and amoeba, are unicellular.

Front

What structures are found in prokaryotic cells?

Back

Prokaryotic cells contain cytoplasm, DNA, ribosomes, and a cell membrane.

Front

What structures are found in eukaryotic cells?

Back

Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and other organelles.

Front

Are all bacteria prokaryotic?

Back

Yes, all bacteria are classified as prokaryotic cells.
