Detailed explanation-1: -Eukaryotic cells are bigger than prokaryotic cells as they are more advanced and developed containing a well-defined nucleus and other cell organelles.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -At 0.1–5.0 µm in diameter, prokaryotic cells are significantly smaller than eukaryotic cells, which have diameters ranging from 10–100 µm (Figure 3.6).
Detailed explanation-4: -Only bacteria have prokaryotic cell types. Eukaryotic cells are generally much larger and more complex than prokaryotic.
Detailed explanation-5: -Eukaryotic cells are typically larger than prokaryotic cells, ranging from around 10 to 100 m in diameter. While many eukaryotes consist of multiple cells, there are also single-celled eukaryotes.
