Contrasting Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cell Structures
Explore the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, categorized by the presence or absence of a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells, with a proper nucleus and various organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts, are found in plants, animals, and fungi. On the other hand, prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, being simpler structures primarily seen in unicellular organisms such as bacteria and archaea.

Presentation Transcript
Compare and contrast...the structure of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells Cell types are categorised broadly as either Prokaryotic cells or Eukaryotic Cells
A cell whose major organelle s are contained within membranes Eukaryotic Cells Have a proper Nucleus Usually have Mitochondria, Golgi Apparatus, Chloroplasts etc Eukarotes include Animals, Plants and Fungi
Cells contain no Nucleus Prokaryotic Cells No membrane-bound organelles http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Average_prokaryote_cell-_en.svg/300px-Average_prokaryote_cell-_en.svg.png Mainly unicellular organisms Generally less complex than the Eukaryotes Components float freely within the cytoplasm Bacteria and Archaea
