1. 4A compare and contrast prokaryote and eukaryote cells Cells

2. We divide cells into 2 types: prokaryote & eukaryote

3. PRO means before EU means TRUE KARYON refers to nucleus

4. Prokaryotes have genetic material that is NOT contained in a nucleus instead its contained in a nucleiod generally smaller & simpler than eukaryotes Has less organelles than eukaryotes ex: bacteria

6. Eukaryotes contain a nucleus in which their genetic material is separated from the rest of the cell contains dozens of organelles ex: plants, animals, fungi, protists

7. These types have STRUCTURAL differences. Prokaryotes Bacteria Eukaryotes AnimalPlant

8. Plant CellAnimal Cell

9. Why do the plant and bacteria cells seem more rigid? They have cells walls

10. Why do animal cells seem more flexible in shape? They do not have cell walls

11. What is the main difference between prokaryotic & eukaryotic cells? “Pro” means “no” nucleus, while eukaryotes have nucleus Prokaryotes are smaller & less complex than eukaryotes

12. Let’s practice…
