Prokaryote Eukaryote

(both plant and Animal)


Smaller and Simpler cell
are bacteria
DNA in cytoplasm
have protein filaments which acts
as a sort of cytoskeleton
In some prokaryotic cells
photosynthesis can occur with
internal photosynthetic membranes
Convert chemical energy to usable
compounds within its cytoplasm
Larger and more complex cell
Associated with plants and animals
most are highly specialized
Contains Vacuoles and vesicles
(stores water, salts, carbs and protein)
Contains Lysomes rare for plants
Cytoskeleton
Centroles (animal cells only)
Endoplasmic reticulum
Mitochondria
Has a Nucleus that contains DNA
(Breaks down and recycles macromolecules)
(keeps cell shape, moves cell parts, helps cells move)
(Organize cell divison)
(assembles proteins and lipids)
Golgi apparatus
(coverts proteins and lipids for storage or transport)
Choroplasts (PLANT ONLY)
(coverts solar energy to chemical energy stored in
food: Photosynthesis)
(convert chemical energy in food to usable compounds)
DNA / chromosomes
Ribosomes
(synthesize proteins)
Cell Wall (not in animal cells)
(shapes, supports, and protects
the cell)
Cell Membrane
(Regulates materials entering and
leaving cell; protects and supports
cell)
Contain Cytoplasms
