Prokaryotic cells are small and do not have membrane bound organelles or a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells do have membrane bound organelles, are larger, and have an enclosed nucleus.

What is the endosymbiotic hypothesis of the origin of the eukaryotic cell?

The theory is that the original Eukaryotic cell came about by the consumption of a Prokaryotic cell by another Prokayotic cell. This smaller cell was incorporated into the processes of the other - thus forming a symbiosis. This theory is supported by the fact that chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own DNA (separate from the nucleus).


What are Cells that have organized nucleus and internal membrane structure?

Eukaryotic cells have an organized nucleus and complex internal membrane structures


In a eukaryotic cell specialized for secretion of hormones which internal organelles would you expect to be particularly abundant?

Mitochondria are numerous in eukaryotic cells.


Internal structure that eukaryotic animal cells possess that prokaryotic bacteria cells do not posses?

The main organelle that eukaryotes(eukaryotic cells) possess is the NUCLEUS


What is is the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus and membrane-bound internal organelles. basically this means that eukaryotic cells organelles do not float around but have a specific spot in the cell. the organelles in a eukaryotic cell are each surrounded by a membrane isolating the organelle from the rest of the organelles. prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus and do not have membrane-bound internal organelles. basically this means that prokaryotic cells have SOME organelles but the organelles that they do have float around. Most prokaryotes are single-celled organisms such as bacteria.

What is a benefit of compartmentalization?

Compartmentalization creates separate environments for diverse processes within the cell. Its advantages include: damage is limited, minimizes non-specific interactions, and increases cellular efficiency.


What are the similarities and differences between eukaryotic cell and a prokaryotic cell?

A prokaryotic cell has no internal membrane while the eukaryotic cell does. In a pro- cell, all of the organelles are together with no separation but with a eu- cell each organelle is separated in its own membrane. Think of it like this in a corny way: Pro = No. Eu= do Sorry, I can't think of any synonym to "yes" that rhymes with "eu." But, if you memorize Pro = No, than you'll have to remember that the eu- cell DOES have an internal membrane.


Where is the cell membrane located in the Cell?

It is internal to the prokaryotic Cell wall as well as the eukaryotic Cell coat.


What is a cell that contains a central nucleus and a complicated internal structures?

Eukaryote would be the correct answer, the exact question would be "What are complex cells that have a nucleus enclosed in the cell membrane called?"

What do bacteria have in place of an internal supporting skeleton?

They have a cytoskeleton which is much like the eukaryotic cytoskeleton just harder to see!
