eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells 1.1.1

• prokaryotes have a smaller and simpler cell structure and do not contain a nucleus or other large organelles
• eukaryotes have a more complex cell structure and do contain a nucleus or other large organelles
• a slime capsule protects the outside of a cell
• the flagella moves the cell around
• plasmids is a loop of dna
• a bacterial cell has: a cell membrane, cytoplasm, cell wall, plasmid, food granules, flagella, slime capsule, ribosome
• a yeast cell contains: cytoplasm, nucleus, cell wall, mitochondria, ribosomes, temporary vacuole, food granules, and a cell membrane
• eukaryotic cells include animal and plant cells
• prokaryotic cells include bacteria
• in prokaryotic cells the genetic material is not enclosed in a nucleus, it is a single DNA loop and there may be one or more small rings of DNA called plasmids 
• in eukaryotic cells their genetic material is enclosed in a nucleus
