The smallest and most common cell that inhabits our home, our rooms, our work place and basically everyone where around us is prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are cells that do not have a nucleus. Although they are microscopic and only 1 to 10 micrometers, they can grow to numbers that can be seen with the unaided eye in hours and minutes. In short, prokaryotes are also known as bacteria.
There are 3 different kinds of bacteria that we will go through in this article. They are the Eubacteria, the Cyanobacteria, Archabacteria, and Prochlorobacteria. All of these bacteria have their different characteristics and qualities which separate them from the rest.
Eubacteria is the largest of all the bacteria. They have a cell wall that is surrounded by carbohydrates which protects the bacteria from injury much like a snail and its shell. Eubacteria can have flagella, long whip-like projection, that they use to move around. Eubacteria are common in many places, and can be found in many areas as they adapt easily. Eubacteria is neither solely friendly nor harmful. Some infect larger organisms and cause diseases that may kill them; whereas others are photosynthetic and do not disturb other organisms.

∙ 14y agoEukaryotes, by definition, aren't bacteria. Bacteria are prokaryotes but not all prokaryotes are bacteria (as humans are mammals but not all mammals are humans).

What are the most common prokaryotic?
bacteria is the smallest prokaryotic
What is a unique feature of prokaryotic cells?
they do not have a membrane-enclosed nucleus
What represents a major difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?
The most obvious difference is that a eukaryotic cell contains a nucleus and a prokaryotic cell does not. Another difference is the complexity of prokaryotic vs eukaryotic cells. In general, eukaryotic cells are bigger and much more complex than prokaryotic cells.
Discibe the differences between a Prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell?
The most notable difference is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles while prokaryotic cells do not. A eukaryotic cell is also generally larger and more complex than a prokaryotic cells. Most living things are made of eukaryotic cells with the exception of some, such as bacteria, which is a prokaryotic cell. A prokaryotic cell can also exist as a unicellular organism.
Is lactobacillus prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
It is prokaryotic because most bacteria are prokaryotic and most fungi are eukaryotic
What are the most common prokaryotic?
bacteria is the smallest prokaryotic
What is a unique feature of prokaryotic cells?
they do not have a membrane-enclosed nucleus
What is the differences n prokaryotic cells and eukaryoti cells?
The simplest answer is that prokaryotic cells do not have a membrane-bound nucleus, and eukaryotic cells do. The nucleus is a compartment where the cell stores its genetic information (DNA). Prokaryotes' DNA is simply within the cytoplasm. Another simple difference is that eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles, whereas prokaryotes lack this feature.
DO prokaryotic cells have mitochondria?
No.. only eukaryotic cells have mitochondria...
What is a defining characteristics of a prokaryotic cell?
Most prokaryotic cells, unlike eukaryotic cells, have a string of DNA inside them instead of a nucleus.

It is prokaryotic because most bacteria are prokaryotic and most fungi are eukaryotic
What will you call a cell not having ERGolgi complexmitochondrianuclear membraneetc?
There are eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells do not have a ER, golgo complex, mitochondria, or nuclear membrane. Most prokaryotes are unicellular.
Which feature is found most often in prokaryotic cells?
plasmid
What to prokaryotic cells contain?
Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes, plasmids, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, cell wall, and a nucleoid. They do not have a membrane-bound nucleus like Eukaryotes do.
What are the 4 components that all prokaryotic cells have?
External structures of a prokaryotic cell include glycocalyces, flagella, fimbriae, and pili. Most prokaryotic cells have a cell wall. Prokaryotic cells have a cytoplasmic membrane, cytosol, and inclusions. The nonmembranous organelles found in a prokaryotic cell are ribosomes and the cytoskeleton.
