Questions and Answers

What are some unique structures found in procaryotic cells?

Procaryotic cells have a chemically complex cell wall and simple internal membranous structures.

Where is the genetic material localized in a procaryotic cell?

The genetic material is localized in a discrete region called the nucleoid.

How do procaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells?

Procaryotic cells are morphologically simpler and do not contain internal membrane-bound organelles.
