In this report, I will discuss cells and the function along with the structure for each of these processes. I will also discuss the process of osmosis, mitosis, also the process of differentiation, alongside how cancer cells configure. There are many differences between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell, the main identifiable differences being that a eukaryotic cell has a nucleus whereas the eukaryotic cell lives in living things such as animals, and plants. Another main difference between the two cells is the presence of other membrane, organelles such as mitochondria. A membrane- bound organelle is an organised and specialised structure found in a living cell only these includes. - Mitochondria ATP - is the cell known as the power house this …show more content…

The vital roles are that of the mitochondria - this preforms as a cellular respiration mitochondrion produces a chemical called NADH, NADH - this is used by enzymes in the mitochondrial inner membrane to generate adenosine triphosphate, - (ATP), ATP energy that is needed to keep the body alive. This stores in a form of a chemical bond, this can be used by every cell in the body, you also have chloroplast this is only found in plants, were as mitochondria is known to derive in both plant cells and animal cells. The chloroplast’s role is to assist the cell in the use of photosynthesis to make food for itself. The table charts below give you a structure on how prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are identified. Eukaryotes Prokaryotes cells are larger Cells are smaller Often multicellular Always unicellular Consistently have membrane – bound organelles There are no membrane organelles Ribosomes are larger Ribosomes are small Has a cytoskeleton present Consists of no cytoskeleton Has Cell division -mitosis - meiosis Cell division is created by the binary fission There reproductions can be, sexual or asexual reproduction can only be
