Are eukaryotic cells larger than prokaryotic cells?

They generally are due to the fact that they are much more complex than prokaryotic cells, but there are some very small Eukaroytic cells (such as the sperm: 40 microns), that are smaller than some large Prokaryotic cells (the largest found so far is 660 microns long). As a rule of thumb, though, Eukaryotic cells are larger than Prokaryotic cells.

What is the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells?

Prokaryotic Cells: Before nucleus. Prokaryotic cells are almost always single-celled, except when they exist in colonies. Prokaryotic cells are generally much smaller and more simple than eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells are, in fact, able to be structurally simpler because of their small size. Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus. Prokaryotic cells are some tiniest of all cells, 0.0001 to 0.003 mm in diameter. Eukaryotic Cells: True nucleus. More complex and bigger. The diameters of eukaryotic cells range in size from 0.01 mm to 1 mm.
