Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells

• Both animal and plant cells are eukaryotes.
• Eukaryotic cells: contain their genetic material (DNA), enclosed in a nucleus.
• Bacterial cells are prokaryotes.
• Prokaryotic cells: the genetic material (DNA), is not enclosed in a nucleus.
• Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells.
• What are the features of a bacterial cell?

• Organisms are made of cells which are the smallest unit with the basic properties of life.
• Eukaryotes can be unicellular (consist of one cell) or multicellular (consist of many cells).
• Prokaryotes (bacteria) are much smaller than eukaryotes and are always unicellular.
• Both types of cells contain sub-cellular structures, that each have specific functions.
