Eukaryotes Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Nuclear Prokaryotes Walls List

Prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells by lacking membrane-bound organelles, a nucleus, and nucleoli; having a single chromosome, murein in cell walls, and 70S ribosomes.

Prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells in lacking membrane-bound organelles, having no nuclear membrane, possessing a single circular chromosome, lacking a nucleolus, having murein in cell walls, and containing 70S ribosomes.

Front List three ways in which prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells. 
( 3 Marks)
Back prokaryotic cells contain no membrane-bound organelles, eukaryotes do

prokaryote cells have no nuclear membrane, eukaryotes do/prokaryotes have a nuclear mass;

eukaryotes have a nucleus/prokaryotes have one long chromosome, eukaryotes have many chromosomes;

prokaryotes have no nucleoli, eukaryotes do;

prokaryotic cell walls contain murein, eukaryotic cell walls (if present) contain cellulose

prokaryotes contain 70S ribosomes, eukaryotes contain 80S ribosomes;
