Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells Animal and Plant cells are considered eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic: A type of cell that has membrane-bound organelles Bacteria are considered prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic: A type of cell that has no membrane-bound organelles.

Prokaryotic Cells Usually smaller than eukaryotic cells In organisms like bacteria and archaea Only a part of unicellular (one cell) organisms Reproduce asexually Have NO MEMBRANE BOUND ORGANELLES Contain ribosomes, a cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm and sometimes flagella DNA is in a circular shape called a plasmid in the cytoplasm

Eukaryotic Cells Usually larger than prokaryotic cells In animals, plants, fungi and protists Can be part of unicellular or multicellular organisms Reproduce sexually or asexually Have MEMBRANE-BOUND ORGANELLES (mitochondria, nucleus, chloroplast, vacuoles) DNA is packed into linear structures called chromosomes in the nucleus

All of these Organisms are made of Eukaryotic Cells

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic DNA Prokaryotic DNA: In a circular chromosome called a plasmid that floats in the cytoplasm. Eukaryotic DNA: In linear chromosomes inside of the nucleus. Note- Chromosome = a package of DNA

Do Now: 3 -2 -1 3 organelles that are in eukaryotic cells but not prokaryotic cells 2 differences in prokaryotic and eukaryotic genetic material 1 difference in size between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

Cells and Sickness Pathogenic Prokaryotic Cells cause. . . Pathogenic Eukaryotic cells cause. . . -strep throat Yeast infection -food poisoning (salmonella, e. Coli) Malaria -bronchitis -cholera -STI’s: chlamydia, syphilis, ghonarea

Cells and Health Ways that prokaryotic cells help us Ways that eukaryotic cells help us Help digest food We are made of eukaryotic cells so they do everything for us! Help prevent stomach ulcers

Think about it … Angel is looking at a cell under a microscope. She says that its eukaryotic. What is one way that she can know that its eukaryotic? A. She sees that it has ribosomes B. She sees that it has mitochondria C. She sees that it has a cell membrane D. She sees that it has cytoplasm

Lab: The Battle of Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Question: Does plate A contain prokaryotic cells or eukaryotic cells? Does plate B contain prokaryotic cells or eukaryotic cells?
