What is larger a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell?

Answer 1

Eukaryotic cells are significantly larger than prokaryotic cells. These are the two basic types of cells in our world. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus, whereas eukaryotic cells do. They both do most of the same functions and conduct them in the same ways, but the two main differences between these kinds of cells is that eukaryotic cells are larger, and much more complex, than prokaryotic cells.

Answer 2

Usually, eukaryotic cells are about 10X bigger than prokaryotes. The only kind of prokaryotes on Earth are bacteria. Eukaryotes include plant, animals, protists, and fungi. Bacteria have no nuclei; their DNA are scattered in their cytoplasm. Eurkaryotes have specifically defined nuclei, containing all the chromosomes of DNA.

Answer 3

Eukaryotic cells are generally larger than prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus and organelles, whereas eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, which contribute to their larger size.

Answer 4

It depends on the species, but Prokaryotes are usually smaller and more simple.

Answer 5

Yes. An average eukaryotic cell is much larger than an average prokaryotic cell.

Answer 6

Eukaryotic cells are about 10 times larger than prokaryotic cells. There are organelles in the eukaryotic cell which need more space.
