List all the structures of both cell types and their functions.
Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes

Eukaryotes Prokaryotes
Structure Function
1. -no nucleus, circular
Nucleus -Contains DNA/genetic material
DNA/plasmid is contained in a
-coiled, singular strand
region inside the cell
2. DNA Form Circular Linear
3. Complexity Simpler More complex
4. Membrane-bound Eukaryotic cells contain many prokaryotic cells do not contain
organelles membrane-enclosed, large, these membrane-bound
complex organelles in the organelles.
cytoplasm
5. Sexual  Sexual reproduction in eukaryotes prokaryote will reproduce clones
reproduction results in offspring with genetic of itself via binary fission and
material which is a mixture of the relies more on horizontal genetic
parents’ genome and during this transfer for variation.
process, genetic variation is
generated via sexual
recombination.
6. Cell division involves numerous stages - the  undergo a simpler process of
nuclear membrane disintegrates binary fission. This is faster than
then the chromosomes are sorted mitosis and involves DNA
and separated to ensure that each replication, chromosomal
daughter cell receives two sets of segregation, and ultimately cell
chromosomes. separation into two daughter cells
genetically identical to the parent
cell. 
7. Cell arrangement Eukaryotes are often multicellular prokaryotes are unicellular.

8. Cell size Eukaryotic cells are ordinarily prokaryotic cells (1 – 10um).

larger (10 – 100um)
9. Glycocalyx Some eukaryotic cells that don’t Glycocalyx acts as a capsule
have cell walls possess a glycocalyx
10. Cell Division Cell division takes place through Cell division occurs through
mitosis binary fission
11. Cytoplasm Eukaryotic cells have complex Prokaryotic cells are primitive
cytoskeleton with cytoplasmic cytoskeleton with no cytoplasmic
streaming streaming
12. Flagella Some cells without cell wall contain Flagella are made up of two
flagella. proteins
