Study Notes
Comparison Between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells
- Prokaryotic cells are single-celled entities that lack a membrane-bound nucleus and other organelles.
- Eukaryotic cells are more complex and have a membrane-bound nucleus and other organelles.
- Prokaryotic cells are primitive in structure and function.
- Eukaryotic cells are more advanced in structure and function.
- Prokaryotic cells include bacteria and archaea.
- Eukaryotic cells include algae, protozoa, fungi, lichens, and molds.
- Prokaryotic cells reproduce through a process called binary fission.
- Acellular microbes, such as viruses, virions, and prions, are different from prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
- Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have different characteristics, structures, habitats, and modes of invasion.
- Prokaryotic cells play an important role in the environment.
- Eukaryotic cells have a more complex anatomy compared to prokaryotic cells.
- Microorganisms are named and classified based on a specific scheme.
