B.4(A) Lesson Pro Vs Eu

Prokaryotes VS Eukaryotes

All cells fall into one of these two broad categories. Only the single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea are classified as prokaryotes. Animals, plants, fungi, and protists are all eukaryotes.

​

What does prokaryotic and eukaryotic mean?

• examples include bateria

• ​a simple, single-celled organism

• lack (do not have) a nucleus

• lack (do not have) membrane-bound organelles, like a mitochondria

• significantly smaller than eukaryotic cells

• DNA is circular floating in the cytoplasm

Prokaryotic Cells

• examples include plants, animals, and fungi

• ​Complex, multicellular organisms

• do have a nucleus

• do have membrane bound organelles like a mitochondria

• Large cells

• DNA is linear in the nucleus

Eukaryotic Cells
