As opposed to prokaryotes, eukaryotes have a clearly definable nucleus to store DNA. Obviously, the organelles present vary from cell to cell, depending hugely on each cell's function. Mitochondria are usually found, as are ribosomes(which are bigger than those in prokaryotes). Some cells will have other features: chloroplasts are found in some plant cells, and vacuoles may be present too.

Compare the size of bacteria to eukaryotic microorganisms?

Bacteria are typically smaller than eukaryotic microorganisms in terms of both cell size and genome size. Eukaryotic microorganisms, such as yeast and algae, are generally larger and more complex, with membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus. Bacteria lack these organelles and their genetic material is mostly contained in a single circular chromosome.


How many structure do prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell have in common?

Since all prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles, the only common structures would be the cell membrane and the ribosomes. The ribosomes, however, are different than the ones found in eukaryotic cells.


Is the Eubacteria cell size complex or simple?

Eubacteria cell size is generally simple, typically ranging from 0.5 to 5 micrometers in diameter. The structure of the Eubacteria cell is simpler compared to eukaryotic cells, lacking membrane-bound organelles like a nucleus or mitochondria.


Are prokaryotic cells about half size of eukaryotic cells on average?

Yes, size of a eukaryotic cell is 5-100 mm and size of a prokaryotic cell is 1-10mm.


What are 5 differences between prokaryotics and eukaryotics?

prokaryotic:-1 True nucleus not present. 2 membrane bound organelles are lacking. 3 size- 1-10mm 4 single chromosomes. 5 nucleus absence. Eukaryotic:- 1True nucleus present. 2 organelles are membrane bounded. 3 size- 5-100mm 4 more than 1 chromosomes. 5 nucleus present.


What is the difference between animal and bacterial cells?

The differences are many. Bacterial cells are 1) prokaryotic; 2) do not have a nucleus; 3) chromosomal DNA is ribbon shaped and loose in the cytoplasm; 4) bacterial cells have cell walls; 5) bacteria do not have organelles and 6) they reproduce by binary fission Animal cells: 1) are eukaryotic; 2) have a well defined nucleus which holds chromosomal DNA; 3) have many organelles; 4) do not have cell walls;5) somatic cells reproduce by mitosis and 6) gametes are produced by meiosis.


What is size of prokaryotic cells?

Size of a eukaryotic cell is 5-100 mm and Size of a prokaryotic cell is 1-10mm.


Are prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells similar?

No, they are not... an example would be this; a type of prokaryote is bacteria, a type of eukaryote is a wolf (animals are classified as a eukaryote) Obviously the wolf is bigger than the bacteria.


How big are eukaryotic cells compared to prokaryotic cells?

Eukaryotic cells are much larger than prokaryotic cells. Most prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, contain no nucleus, but instead has a nucleolus which contains its DNA structure. Eukaryotic cells, found in most plants and animals, are much larger in size and do contain a central nucleus, which holds its DNA.


How big are prokaryotic cells?

Size of a eukaryotic cell is 5-100 mm and Size of a prokaryotic cell is 1-10mm.


Which type of cell found in bacteria and blue green algae?

Prokaryotic cells are found in bacteria and blue green algae


Compare between prokaryotic cell and eukaryotic cell?

prokaryotic are cells without a nucleus and are located in the cytoplasm. eukaryotic are cells with nucleus. are located in the muticelluler organism. compare are that eukaryotics and prokaryotics are cells.
