Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

Prokaryotic

Organelles: No membrane-bound

Prokaryotic

Genetic information: DNA is circular, found in nucleoid region.

Prokaryotic

cells that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, typically smaller than eukaryotic cells.

Prokaryotic

Size: Generally small, around 1 to 10 micrometers.

Prokaryotic

Organism types: bacteria and archaea.

Prokaryotic

Cell number: always unicellular, consisting of a single cell.

Eukaryotic

Cells with complex structures, containing a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Organisms can be unicellular or multicellular.

Eukaryotic

Genetic information: DNA is linear, found in nucleus.

Eukaryotic

Organelles: membrane-bound

Eukaryotic

Size: 10 to 100 micrometers

Eukaryotic

Organism types: protist, fungi, plants, animals

Eukaryotic

Cell number: unicellular or multicellular
