Prokaryotic cells are larger than eukaryotic cells.
|
|
|
Eukaryotic cells do not have nuclei, and prokaryotic cells do have nuclei.
|
|
|
Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles, and eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles.
|
|
|
Eukaryotic cells are simpler than prokaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-1: -Eukaryotic cells like plant cell and animal cells contain a well defined nucleus and have all the membrane bound organelles. E.g., Golgi bodies, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, etc. Whereas prokaryotic cells like bacterial cells do not contain membrane bound cell organelles.
Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, but they have no internal membrane-bound organelles within their cytoplasm. The absence of a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles differentiates prokaryotes from another class of organisms called eukaryotes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Components of Prokaryotic Cells A prokaryotic cell is a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle.
Detailed explanation-4: -By definition, prokaryotes lack a membrane-bound nucleus to hold their chromosomes. Instead, the chromosome of a prokaryote is found in a part of the cytoplasm called a nucleoid. Prokaryotes generally have a single circular chromosome that occupies a region of the cytoplasm called a nucleoid.
