A cheek cell is a eukaryote, also known as a eukaryotic cell, as it come from mammals which are animals which are in the domain Eukarya.
Eukaryotes and prokaryotes differ in many ways. Eukaryotes have true nuclei (DNA with nuclear membrane) and membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes lack many organelles, none of which are bound to the membrane. Eukaryotes appeared much later in geological history and are about 30 times larger.

∙ 14y agoAssuming you're talking about animals, a cheek cell is eukaryote. All animal cells are eukaryote.
You can tell by looking inside of the cell. If the cell has a nucleus for the DNA it is eukaryote, if it does not it is prokaryote.

Why are cheek cells eukaryotic?
Because ALL cells in an animal with different tissue types are eukaryotic. "Eu" means "good" in Greek and so was chosen as the name for OUR kind of creatures - creatures whose cells have a nuclear membrane insulating the DNA in the core of a cell from the outer areas where each cell handles digestion of materials from the outside of the cell and builds the proteins and enzymes that it uses to do its job. So any cell that is a part of you - like your cheek - is eukaryotic because you are a eukaryote.
Is a fat cell a prokaryotic or a eukaryotic cell?
A fat cell is a eukaryotic cell. All of the cells in a eukaryotic organism are eukaryotic.
Do eukaryotic cells have a cell wall?
Yes it does. Eukaryotic cells of yeast and plant have cell wall.
How are elodea cells similar to cheek cells?
Well, a cheek cell would be some sort of animal cell, and an Elodea would have plant cells. So an Elodea cell would have cells walls, while a cheek cell would not. A cheek cell would have a pair of centrioles, while an Elodea cell would not.
Are onion cells are prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Onions are in plant kingdom. They have eukaryotic cells.
Which cell is in your cheek - eukaryote or prokaryote?
As a eukaryotic organism, you're only going to produce eukaryotic cells. However, there will be prokaryotes (bacteria) in your mouth and on your cheek.
What kingdom of life are cheek cells?
A cheek cell is a cell found on your cheek that is used to help keep you alive in some ways.
Why are cheek cells eukaryotic?

Are eukaryotic cells are cells that are surrounded by a cell membrane?
Eukaryotic cells have cell membranes.
Is a fat cell a prokaryotic or a eukaryotic cell?
A fat cell is a eukaryotic cell. All of the cells in a eukaryotic organism are eukaryotic.
Do cheek cells have cell membranes?
yupp cheek cells are animal cells so they have cell membranes
Is a cheek cell a eukaryote or prokaryote and why?
Assuming you're referring to the epithelial lining of an animal that does indeed have cheeks, the cell is eukaryotic because it has a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus.
Do eukaryotic cells have a cell wall?
Yes it does. Eukaryotic cells of yeast and plant have cell wall.
What is the location of a eukaryotic cell?
In you. You have trillions of cells and they all are eukaryotic cells.
Do the eukaryotic cell have a cell membrane?
Yes. Eukaryotic cells do have a cell membrane on the outside.
How are elodea cells similar to cheek cells?

Does an owl have a prokaryote cell or Eukaryotic?
It has Eukaryotic cells
