Compare and contrast the 3 main differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells we have learned so far in class (see your note sheet for today!) Recall and name as many parts of each cell that we’ve learned about so far Give examples of each type of cell Daily Science

Comparing Cells Biology

Cell Similarities All cells have a few basic features in common: They are all surrounded by a plasma membrane In the membrane is a jellylike fluid called the cytoplasm (holds organelles) All cells contain chromosomes (carry DNA) All cells have ribosomes (make proteins) Cell Similarities

Prokaryotic- Major Organelles DNA- in a nucleoid region No nucleus No membrane-bounded structures (organelles) Cell wall Prokaryotic- Major Organelles

Picture of Prokaryotic

Eukaryotic- Major Organelles DNA- in the nucleus Many membrane-bound organelles Eukaryotic- Major Organelles

Eukaryotic-Animal Cells Have all eukaryotic properties plus… Cytoskeleton and plasma membrane (cell support) Some have flagellum (tails) Centrioles or centrosome Mitochondria Round in cell shape Eukaryotic-Animal Cells

Eukaryotic-Plant Cells Have all eukaryotic properties plus… Cytoskeleton, plasma membrane, and cell wall No flagellum Central vacuole (for water) Chloroplast Mitochondria Square in cell shape Eukaryotic-Plant Cells

Make a key on the back of your worksheet for comparing plant and animal cells ONLY Use one color to circle or highlight similar organelles Use another color to circle or highlight different organelles unique to that cell only Color Code Organelles
