1. 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

2. Comparing Cells
Biology

3. 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

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

5. Picture of Prokaryotic

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

7. 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

8. 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

9. 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
