Q. Difference between a Prokaryotic cell and a Eukaryotic cell?
Answer: Prokaryotic cell
The prokaryotic cell is a kind of cell that does not possess a true nucleus or membrane-covered organelles. Creatures that lay under the provinces Archaea and Bacteria are the common examples best known as prokaryotic cells, while all further life forms are eukaryotic. Furthermore, animals and plants with prokaryotic cells are very ample and sum up to the majority of Earth’s biomass.
Some of the major components of prokaryotic cells are as follows:
- Cytoplasm
- Plasma membrane
- DNA
- Ribosomes
- Others.
Eukaryotic Cell
Eukaryotic cells are the types of cells that are simpler in form and do not have larger organisms and do form more complex organisms. Eukaryotes contain a nuclear membrane which is composed of a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells can flourish in and also can sustain numerous environments as a portion of a single cell- a specification that aids them to grow more in size as compared to prokaryotic cells and also enables metabolic responses.
Major parts of the eukaryotic cells are as follows
- Plasma Membrane
- Cell Wall
- Nucleus
- Cytoskeleton
- Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Golgi Apparatus
- Ribosomes
- Lysosomes
- Others

Prokaryotic Cell |
Eukaryotic Cell |
|
Prokaryotic cells are always unicellular |
Eukaryotic cells can be both unicellular and multicellular. |
|
The size of the prokaryotic cells lies between 0.2 mm to 2.0 mm in diameter |
While these cells’ sizes range from 10mm to 100mm in diameter. |
|
A nucleotide is present and the nucleus is absent. |
Eukaryotic cells possess a true nucleus. |
|
DNA is managed in a circular shape. |
DNA is present in the linear structure. |
|
The majority of cell organelles are absent but cytoplasm is present. |
Both cytoplasm and other cell organelles are present. |
|
The most common examples are bacteria and archaea. |
Plant and animal cells are common examples of eukaryotic cells. |
