How does the structure of a chromosome differ in a prokayote and eukaryote?

Eukaryotic cells have a double membrane, surrounding the nucleus, the organelle that contains several chromosomes. The prokaryote chromosomes are dispersed within the cell and is not enclosed by a separate membrane

∙ 15y agoIn eukaryotes, chromosomes are present as complex structures formed by highly condensed super-coiled DNA looped around proteins called histones. They have chromatids and a centromere. Eukaryotic chromosomes are enclosed within the nucleus. Prokaryotic chromosomes are present at a ring or loop of DNA in the cytoplasm.

How do the metabolic pathways of bacteria differ from the eukaryotic cell?
Pathways in prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells in that the pathways used by prokaryotes are much more versatile. They have several different methods by which they can metabolize. The internal structure of a eukaryote is meant only for glycolysis.
How do boys chromosomes differ from girls?
Boys have one x chromosome and a y chromosome, whereas a girl has two x chromosomes.
How do the cells of people with down syndrom differ from those of others?
People with down syndrome have cells with an extra chromosome 21.
How do plasmids differ from chromosome?
A bacterial chromosome provides data that is required by the bacteria to survive and reproduce. A plasmid does not. It gives a bacterium "special" attributes in during extreme conditions, such as the ability to do genetic recombination or the resistance to certain antibiotics.
Do the cells beneath the formative phase differ from each other?
due to their structure and function they are differ from each other
How do the structure and location of a prokaryotic chromosomes differ from that of a eukaryotic chromosome?
because they do

Why are eukaryote and prokaryote cells differ?
Eukaryotes have a nucleus. Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus.
How does the chromosome number in a diploid cell differ from the chromosome number in a haploid cell?
The chromosome number in hapliod cell is 1 while the dipliod chromosome has 2

How does a single chromatoid differ from an x-shaped duplicated chromosome?
A Chromatid is a single section or "half" of the intended Chromosome. It contains half of the genetic material of a full Chromosome. Two Chromatids are generally bound together with a Centromere in order to form a fully functional X Chromosome.
How does a pair of sister chromosome differ from a single unduplicated chromosome?
Sister chromatids are two copies of a replicated chromosome. Chromosomes occur in pairs. These will be separated in anaphase of mitosis and one chromatid pair will be left for each daughter cell.
How is prokaryote differ from eukaryote?
Prokaryotic cells are found only in two groups of single-celled organisms, the bacteria and the Archaea. Eukaryotic cells make up the bodies of all living things. DNA of eukaryotic cell is contained with an separate membrane-bond structure called NUCLEUS.
