Best Answer

They are similar because they use the same bonding techniques.

However are different because eukaryotic cells have a nucleus creating

a much more complex system, therefore they have more DNA than

prokaryotic cells.

Protein synthesis in eukaryotes is similar to the process in prokaryotes in that both eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

use codons to determine polypeptide sequences


What does your current evidence tell us about the evolution of prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Prokaryotes are much simpler organisms than eukaryotes. It is thought that eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes. In both cases the evolution process was lengthy and similar to the evolution of other organisms.


What are same between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

1) Cell walls - Most Prokaryotes and some eukaryotes (plants and fungi) have a cell wall.However, the cell walls of prokaryotes and eukaryotes, although similar in function, are made of different types of materials. 2) Cytoplasm - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a fluid-like matrix that fills the cell. 3) Cytoskeleton - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a supportive cytoskeleton within the cell, although this feature was only recently discovered to occur within prokaryotes. 4) Extensions of the Plasma Membrane - Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells can have thin extensions of the plasma membrane supported by elements of the cytoskeleton, including flagella and cilia in eukaryotes and flagella, endoflagella, fimbriae and pili in prokaryotes. 5) Glycocalyces - There are some prokaryotes and eukaryotes that possess a glycocalyx. These sticky sugar-based structures anchor cells to each other help cells stick to surfaces and provide some protection. 6) Plasma membranes - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have this lipid bilayer surrounding that represents the boundary between the inside and outside of the cell. 7) Ribosomes - These little protein factories are the cell's only non-membrane-bound organelle. Both prokayrotes and eukaryotes manufacture proteins, therefore both cell types possess ribosomes.


Does bacteria have microtubules?

Bacteria do not have microtubules in an eukaryotic sense since they do not have tubulin. However, they do have tubulin homologue FtsZ protein that form structures and perform functions similar to microtubules in eukaryotes. Sometimes these structures are referred to as 'bacteria microtubules'.


What is the evidence scientists have to support endosymbiosis and the evolution of prokaryotes to eukaryotes?

The difference between eukaryotes and prokaryotes is primarily that prokaryotes don't have membrane-wrapped organelles, including a cell nucleus containing its genetic material and mitochondria, the organelles that produce most of the eukaryote's supply of ATP, a source of chemical energy for cells. It is thought that organelles like the mitochondria evolved in eukaryotes as a result of endosymbiosis between prokaryotes. A similar origin has been proposed for chloroplasts in algae and plants. This is supported by the fact that these organelles contain their own DNA, and replicate independently from the host cell, as well as by their apparent genetic, morphological and behavioural relationship with various extant prokaryotes.

What is the relationship between archaea and humans?

archaea are ancient prokaryotes and humans are eukaryotes. archaea and eukaryotes have some similar genetic processes so it is thought that archaea are evolutionary closer to eukaryotes. this in turn means that humans have evolved indirectly from archaea

The first life on earth were prokaryotes or eukarytoes?

For the first 1.5 billion years, prokaryotes ruled the earth (and still do). It was not until about 2,100 million years ago that the first eukaryote evolved. It is hypothesised that the first eukaryote was a result of a larger prokaryote engulfing a smaller prokaryote (symbiosis) and they began to cohabitate together. The evidence for this is that mitochondrian and chlorophylls have their own DNA and are very similar to prokaryotic cells.


How are bacteria's and archaea similar and how are they different?

they are both Prokaryotes, Unicellular, and are either an Autotroph of a Heterotroph


How are the prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells simaliar?

Prokaryotes and eukaryotes both have some certain similar cells components: cell membrane, ribosomes, and DNA


What is one way that bacteria and archaea are the same?

They are both prokaryotes They are both unicellular.(apex)
