Prokaryotes Vs Eukaryotes

Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The chromosomes which are found in prokaryotes are usually spread in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotic cells the chromosomes remain together inside the nucleus and there is a clear nuclear membrane that is surrounding the nucleus.

Bacteria and Archaea are prokaryotic, which are mostly single-celled incomplex microorganisms. Both Bacteria and Archaea have a variety of prokaryotes classified in multiple kingdoms (Reece, et al., Campbell Biology, 2014). There are a number of scientists who believe that Archaea cells may be the precursor to Eukaryotic cells and that they have more in common with Eukaryotes than Prokaryotes (Madigan, Martinko, & Dunlap, 2009).

“Eukaryotic cells are complex and include all animal and plant cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler, e.g. Bacteria” - (AQA 2008)

Eukaryotes have an enclosed nucleus with paired DNA. Intracellular structures in prokaryotes have plasma membrane and lacks sterols. Eukaryotes have sterols with plasma membrane. Both have a cell membrane. Prokaryotes have a cell wall.

Within prokaryotes and eukaryotes there are various similarities, but also differences. First, prokaryotes are cells without a true nucleus. Instead they have a nucleoid that houses their DNA. Eukaryotes on the other hand are cells with a nucleus and a nuclear membrane. Along with the nuclear membrane, eukaryotes also have membrane bound organelles. These organelles allow for complex compartmentalization. Prokaryotes have no membrane bound organelles, which causes them to be simplistic and lack internal compartmentalization. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes both have a cell wall that determines their shape and protects the cell. However, the cell walls differ in structure. Eukaryotes do not have peptidoglycan in their cell wall, whereas some prokaryotes

KINGDOM PROTISTA: These organisms are placed here more because of what they are not than what they are. Kingdom Protista contains all Eukaryotes that are NOT Plants, Animal, or Fungi, more than 50,000 species in all. Kingdom Protista includes unicellular and a few simple multicellular Eukaryotes. Eukaryotic cells have nuclei and organelles that are surrounded by membranes.

Cells can be traced back to the basic structure of life. Cells make up all organisms such as, plants, the human body and fungi. There are different types of cells. The thing that differentiates Eukaryotic cells, which are animal and plant cells from Prokaryotic cells is the membranous organelles that are in the cytoplasm and chromosome proteins. The Eukaryotic cell nucleus contains most of the genetic material and controls all activity. mRNA translation happens in the ribosomes which carries out protein synthesis of the cell, while DNA replication occurs at the nucleus. Ribosomes are critical for protein assembly which is important for cellular functions. Also, there is endoplasmic reticulum, it has 2 type: rough and smooth. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for metabolic processes and lipid synthesis.

Climate change will not only accelerate the species extinction rate, but also bring a higher chances of survival of certain endangered species, which indicates that the impact of climate change on biodiversity is double-sided (Bellard et al. 2012).

Both of them are composed of cells, which are surrounded by a cell membrane and cytoplasm. Both have flagella. Prokaryotes have protein building blocks, while Eukaryotes has multiple microtubules. Both have cell wall. On Prokaryotes it includes peptidoglycan and is chemically complex while in eukaryotes it is chemically simple. The DNA in prokaryotes exists in a space called nucleoid and it is circular DNA while eukaryotes have linear DNA and it is organized into a higher-order structure. Both have ribosomes that are used for translation of RNA into proteins. Both of them can perform transport, DNA replication, transcription, translation, and movement. Although, they have similarities, most are carried out within organelles in eukaryotes.

The cell is the basic unit of a living organism. There are two classified types of cells Prokaryote and eukaryote. A prokaryote is a single cell organism with no distinct nucleus nor other specialized organelles. Eukaryote is an organism consist of cell or cells in which the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within a distinct nucleus. So whether it's eukaryote or prokaryote it may not have distinctive organelles but they are still just not as noticeable as others. If these are the only two categories then that makes viruses non living because viruses are not prokaryote or eukaryote. Virsu have no organelles to from the fuction of a regular cell would. Viruses are a protein cased body called a capsid, and inside the

cells. Evidence of endosymbiosis is exemplified through the salient similarities between prokaryotes and mitochondria . Mitochondria and prokaryotic cells both possess identifiable cell membranes, with each mitochondrion having its own circular DNA genome (Purdom, 2006) that is similar to, but smaller than a bacteria's genome.This DNA is received by the offspring from

It is evidently known that the cell is the basic unit of life. Cells are microscopic, membrane-bound units which contain biomolecules allowing them to carry out functions, sustain life and self-replicate. Although every living cell comes under one of the 6 kingdoms in the biological taxonomy of living organisms, the two most distinct types of cells are eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotes (pre-nucleus) are single-celled organisms which do not contain a nucleus nor do they have any membrane-bound organelles within them. Eukaryotes (literally meaning “true nucleus”) were developed many years after prokaryotes and can either be single-celled or multi-cellular organisms.

Another thing Eukaryotes have that Prokaryotes don’t is a membrane bound organelles. The DNA of Eukaryotes is more extensive and complex. The DNA of prokaryotes floats freely around the cell while the DNA of Eukaryotes is held in the nucleus. They both deal with different types of living

The eukaryotic cell and prokaryotic cells are alike in many ways, Some ways they are alike is that they have DNA as their genetic material , membrane bound, have ribosomes, similar basic metabolism, and amazingly diverse in forms. This is the twin like feature that they have. The eukaryotic cell and prokaryotic cells differ in way to

Eukaryotic cells - found in animals, plants and fungi. In eukaryotic cells, the DNA is sectioned off from the cytoplasm in its own membrane compartment called the nucleus.
