The document discusses the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and organelles, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus enclosed by membranes and organelles that each perform specific cellular functions. The key differences are that prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus or organelles, while eukaryotic cells do have a nucleus surrounded by membranes and organelles within the cell.

1. Cell Biology ProkaryoticVsEykaryotic!

2. Cells: The Building Blocks of LifeThe CELL THEORY states that all living things are made of cellsCells come from other cellsCells in our world come in two basic types: -Prokaryotic - Eukaryotic

3. Cells: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic“Karyose” comes from Greek word for “kernel” and is used in biology to refer to the nucleus of the cell“Pro” means “before” therefore PROkaryotic means before a nucleus (or a cell having no nucleus or a fake nucleus“Eu” means “true” therefore Eukaryotics means possessing a true nucleus
