5. How Cells Differ Cells come in a variety of sizes and shapes. The structure or shape of the cell can determine what its function is.

6. 2 Basic Cell Types A. Prokaryotic Cells: Have no membrane around their hereditary material. Few cell parts. Example: Bacteria B. Eukaryotic Cells: Have a membrane that surrounds the hereditary material = the nucleus. Organelles that have specialized functions, surrounded by a membrane. Usually larger than prokaryotic cells Example: Animals and Plants
