Plant cells are eukaryotes. Prokaryotes are definitely smallest, usually less than 5 micrometers in length. The green algae Caulerpa is of the world's largest single-celled organisms. It grows in tropical waters, and some grow to be over a meter long. Most cells are limited to less than 100 micrometers. The nerve cells in a giraffe leg can be several meters long. There is endless debate about what is the largest single cell. If it has to be a separate organism, then perhaps the algae wins. If it can be part of another organism, then perhaps the nerve cells win.

What are the cells called that have a nucleus and organelles?

There are two basic types of cells, prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Eukaryotes differ from prokaryotes in a few ways, but the biggest difference is that eukaryotes have a nucleus and prokaryotes don't.


How are plant cells classified?

By eukaryotes and prokaryotes.


what eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

prokaryotes have no nucleus and include bacteria euakryotes have a nucleus and include plant and animal cells


Are both animal cells and plant cells prokaryotic?

Prokaryotes are a type of cell. not any organelle in a cell. Eukaryotes include the animal and plant cells. prokaryotes are cells like bacteria that do not have membrane bound organelles.


Are plant and animal cells eukaryotic or prokaryotic?

Plant and animal cells are both eukaryotes. However, some animal cells may be prokaryotes, like red blood cells. RBC do not have nucleus. They are considered prokaryotes, so they do not live long.


Are plant cells eukaryotes or prokaryotes?

Plant cells are eukaryotes. They have a defined nucleus that houses their genetic material, as well as membrane-bound organelles such as chloroplasts and mitochondria. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, lack a defined nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.


What are the 2 main differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Prokaryotes: * single-cellular * do not have membrane-bound organelles (such as mitochondria or chloroplasts) * transcription and translation of DNA can occur simultaneously due to the fact that there is no nuclear membrane Eukaryotes: * can be multi-cellular * contain membrane-bound organelles


Does photophosphorylation occur in only prokaryotes?

No, photophosphorylation occurs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is a process in photosynthesis where light energy is used to phosphorylate ADP to ATP. In prokaryotes, it mainly occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts, while in eukaryotes, it occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.


Is a cell wall a organelles?

Yes but only some Prokaryotes have a cell wall and plant cells(Eukaryotes) have a plant cell. There are some animals that have a cell wall.


Is a plant a eukaryote or a prokaryote?

plant is a eukaryotic cell with well organized nuclear membrane and nucleus


Is plant cells the same as bacterium cells?

No. Plant cells are eukaryotes. They have a membrane bound nucleus and many membrane bound organelles. Bacteria are prokaryotes. They have circular chromosomes distributed throughout the cell in the nucleoid region and no membrane bound organelles.
