Flashcards
Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic cells
Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic cells
Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have both.
Plant vs. Animal Cells
Plant vs. Animal Cells
Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole; animal cells do not.
Mitosis stages
Mitosis stages
Mitosis stages are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase. These are a part of cell division for growth and repair.
