Comparing prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

  • There are many comparisons that can be made between the structures and processes of prokaryotic compared to eukaryotic cells

    Feature

    Prokaryotes

    Eukaryotes

    Size

    0.5–5 µm diameter

    Up to 100 µm diameter

    Genome

    DNA is circular with no proteins, in the cytoplasm

    DNA is associated with histones (proteins), forming chromosomes

    Cell division

    Occurs by binary fission, no spindle involved

    Occurs by mitosis or meiosis and involves a spindle to separate chromosomes

    Ribosomes

    70S ribosomes

    80S ribosomes

    Organelles

    Very few, no membrane-bound organelles

    Numerous types of organelles are membrane-bound. Single membranes: lysosomes, Golgi complex, vacuoles. Double membranes: nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplast. No membrane: ribosomes, centrioles, microtubules

    Cell wall

    Made of peptidoglycan (polysaccharide and amino acids) and murein

    Present in plants (made of cellulose or lignin) and fungi (made of chitin, similar to cellulose but containing nitrogen)
