Cells: Prokaryote vs Eukaryote
2
Cells have evolved two different architectures: Prokaryote “style” Eukaryote “style”
3
Prokaryote cells are smaller and simpler Commonly known as bacteria 10-100 microns in size Single-celled(unicellular) or Filamentous (strings of single cells)
4
These are prokaryote E. coli bacteria on the head of a steel pin.
5
Prokaryote cells are simply built (example: E. coli) DNA is free floating Does not have a nucleus
6
1 st cells/ primitive Prokaryote cells are simply built (example: E. coli)
7
Prokaryote lifestyle unicellular: all alone Bacteria Kingdoms Archaebacteria Eubacteria
8
Eukaryotes are bigger and more complicated Have a nucleus can be multicellular DNA (genetic instructions) is in the nucleus.
9
Organelles are membrane-bound cell parts Mini “organs” that have unique structures and functions Located in cytoplasm
10
Eukaryote cells can be multicellular include animal, plant, fungi, and protist cells
11
Advantages of each kind of cell architecture ProkaryotesEukaryotes simple and easy to growcan specialize fast reproduction tend to be multicellular (some exceptions) all the samecan build large bodies
