1. Nucleus. The main difference is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. That is really the meaning of the words prokaryotic (before nucleus) and eukaryotic (true nucleus).
2. Organelles. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles and prokaryotic cells do not. I say membrane-bound organelles (mitochondrion, lysosomes) because both have ribosomes, which in come texts are considered organelles, but ribosomes are not membrane-bound (surrounded by a membrane).
3. Size. Eukaryotic cells are huge compared to prokaryotic cells. Most eukaryotic cells can be seen in detail with a simple light microscope.
4. Method of reproduction( cell division). Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission and eukaryotic cells divide by mitosis or meiosis.
What else can I help you with?
Three things both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have?
The similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are; They both contain ribosomes They are both enclosed by plasma membranes They are both filled with cytoplasm and they both have DNA.
What structural features characterise prokaryotes?
"Prokaryotic cells differ significantly from eukaryotic cells. They don't have a membrane-bound nucleus and instead of having chromosomal DNA, their genetic information is in a circular loop called a plasmid. Bacterial cells are very small, roughly the size of an animal mitochondrion (about 1-2µm in diameter and 10 µm long). Prokaryotic cells feature three major shapes: rod shaped, spherical, and spiral. Instead of going through elaborate replication processes like eukaryotes, bacterial cells divide by binary fission."
What are the types of cells?
The two types of cells are a Prokaryotic and a Eukaryotic cell. The Prokaryotic would like bacteria and archea. They have no nucleus and they are less complex. The Eukaryotic cells would be like protists, plants and animals. This type of cell has a nucleus enclosed by a membrane, and they are more complex.
What organelles do both prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have?
Some examples of organelles that could be present in both pro-and eukaryotic cells (it all depends on the species) are a: flagellum, plasmid (rare in eukarytoic cells, but not unheard of) and ribosome.
What describes a prokaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes, plasmids, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, cell wall, and a nucleoid. They do not have a membrane-bound nucleus like Eukaryotes do.
Which cell is not a eukaryotes Plant cell animal cell Bacteria cell or trees cell?
Tree cells and plant cells are similar, and animal cells differ from the other three (tree, plant, and bacteria). Bacteria are characterized by having round DNA instead of linear DNA. Round DNA is a characteristic of prokaryotic cells and not eukaryotic cells. Thus, bacteria is not a eukaryote. (Note: there are many more differences between eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells such as size, organelles....)
What are the three basic types of cells?
The three basic types of cells are prokaryotic cells (lacking a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles), eukaryotic plant cells (containing a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles), and eukaryotic animal cells (also containing a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles).
Three things both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have?
The similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are; They both contain ribosomes They are both enclosed by plasma membranes They are both filled with cytoplasm and they both have DNA.
Describe the differeneces between a prokaryotic and a eukaryotic cell and identify their parts?
the scanning electron microscope allows scientist to scan the surfaces of cells to learn their three-dimensional shape. the transmission electron microscope allows scientist to study the structures contained within the cell

Is archaebacteria procaryotic or eucaryotic?
Archaebacterias are prokaryotic, although they have more things in common with a eukaryotic cell because they too lack a true nucleus.
Are hamsters prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Plankton can be either eukaryotic or prokaryotic, it's dependent on the specific type of plankton. Plankton are divided into three different categories, Zooplankton, Bacterioplankton and phytoplankton. Zooplankton are eukaryotic.
What organelles do both prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have?

Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes, plasmids, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, cell wall, and a nucleoid. They do not have a membrane-bound nucleus like Eukaryotes do.
Which domain is not prokaryotic?
The Domain Eukaryota is not prokaryotic. Eukaryotic organisms, including plants, animals, fungi, and protists, have cells with a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic organisms, like bacteria and archaea, lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
What are the three dominions of life?
The three dominions of life are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Bacteria and Archaea are both prokaryotic domains, while Eukarya consists of organisms with eukaryotic cells, including protists, fungi, plants, and animals.
