Question
bacterial cells are prokaryotic, and yeast cells are eukaryotic. they both have a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes. but eukaryotic cells contain other parts, called membrane - bound organelles, that are not found in prokaryotic cells. the nucleus is an example of a membrane - bound organelle - it holds the dna inside a nuclear membrane. unicellular organisms can be prokaryotic, or eukaryotic, but all complex multicellular organisms are made up of eukaryotic cells. eukaryotic yeast cell prokaryotic bacterial cell complete the table. characteristic prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cells contain cytoplasm have a cell membrane comprise unicellular organisms contain a nucleus with linear chromosomes comprise multicellular organisms contain ribosomes
- Contain cytoplasm: Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have cytoplasm.
- Have a cell membrane: Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have a cell membrane.
- Comprise unicellular organisms: Both prokaryotic (e.g., bacteria) and eukaryotic (e.g., yeast) cells can be unicellular.
- Contain a nucleus with linear chromosomes: Only eukaryotic cells have a nucleus with linear chromosomes. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleoid (no true nucleus) and usually circular DNA.
- Comprise multicellular organisms: Only eukaryotic cells make up multicellular organisms.
- Contain ribosomes: Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have ribosomes.
