Eukaryotes and prokaryotes

Plant and animal cells are what type of cells?

eukaryotic cells

what do eukaryotic cells have?

a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and genetic material enclosed in the nucleus

what is bigger a eukaryotic cell or prokaryotic cell?

eukaryotic cell

what do prokaryotic cells have?

a cell membrane, cytoplasm, cell wall, DNA loop, and plasmids

where do prokaryotic cells keep their DNA?

not enclosed in the nucleus - it’s in a single DNA loop and there maybe one or more small rings of DNA called plasmids

what type of cells are bacterial cells?

prokaryotic cells

how can we see cells?

using a microscope

what unit do we use to measure cells?

a micrometre

if two things were the same size how would scientists deceive their order of magnitude

they’re around the same order of magnitude

if a pineapple is 10x the size of a lemon how would scientists describe the order of magnitude

the pineapple is 1 order of magnitude larger than the lemon

1 order of magnitude means…

10x

every order of magnitude is ??? than the one before

10x greater
