Detailed explanation-1: -What is the difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells? The defining characteristic feature that distinguishes between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell is the nucleus. In prokaryotic cells, the true nucleus is absent, moreover, membrane-bound organelles are present only in eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. The nucleus is where cells store their DNA, which is the genetic material. The nucleus is surrounded by a membrane. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prokaryotes are always unicellular, while eukaryotes are often multi-celled organisms. Additionally, eukaryotic cells are more than 100 to 10, 000 times larger than prokaryotic cells and are much more complex. The DNA in eukaryotes is stored within the nucleus, while DNA is stored in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are several differences between the two, but the biggest distinction between them is that eukaryotic cells have a distinct nucleus containing the cell’s genetic material, while prokaryotic cells don’t have a nucleus and have free-floating genetic material instead.

Detailed explanation-5: -Eukaryotic cells have cell walls very rarely, if present they have simple chemical nature. True nucleus is present. In prokaryotic cells, cytoplasm is present, but it is lacking in most cell organelles. In eukaryotic cells, it consists of both cytoplasm and organelles, both are present.
