Prokaryotic Cells vs. Eukaryotic Cells
Characteristic	Prokaryotes	Eukaryotes
Types	Bacteria, Archaea	Animals, plants, fungi
Cell Division	Binary fission	Mitosis and meiosis
Size	Small (1-5 µm)	Large (10–100 µm)
DNA	single, circular double stranded DNA Single origin of replication Haploid cells Does not have telomeres DNA located in cytoplasm (nucleoid)	Multiple, linear double stranded DNA Many origins of replication Diploid (or more) Has telomeres DNA located in the nucleus
Cell structure	No membrane bound organelles (this is high yield!) Both anaerobic and aerobic cellular respiration occurs in cytoplasm Cell wall contains peptidoglycan in bacteria	Membrane bound organelles (this is high yield!) Anaerobic cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm while aerobic occurs in mitochondria Cell wall contains cellulose in plants and chitin in fungi
Ribosomes	70S ribosomes (composed of 50S & 30S subunits)	80S ribosomes (composed of 60S & 40S subunits)
