- Has a nucleus, linear chromosomes
- have 80s ribosomes
- the cell wall is mad of cellulose in plants, chitin in moulds and mannose in yeasts
- Unlike prokaryotes, Eukaryotes do not contain plasmids
- the cell size is roughly 20-40 nm. Much larger than Prokaryotes
- Prokaryotes
- E.g Bacteria
- Have no nucleus
- have circular chromosomes
- Have no membrane bound organelles
- have 70 s Ribosomes
- The cell wall is made of Murein
- May contain plasmids
- the cell is much smaller than eukaryotes. are 1-10nm
- Viruses
- are acellular and non-living
- are usually less than 0.2 micro metres
- mostly parasitic
