Prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells in numerous ways. Prokaryotes cells are less complicated than eukaryotes in fact prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, organelles, and like eukaryotes it does have DNA, but at its structure is circular in the nucleoid region. Eukaryotic cells have a linear structure for DNA, but unlike prokaryotes it does have organelles, a nucleus and it goes through exo- and endo- cytosis. With this in mind, eukaryotic cells aren’t simple at all comparing it prokaryotes in fact eukaryotes are larger than prokaryotes, they are about 10-100 micrometers while prokaryotes are about 1-5 micrometers .However, in plants which is a eukaryote and some prokaryotes have cell walls, but they are made at out completely different material for prokaryotes its peptidoglycan and for eukaryotes its cellulose. Additionally, the other similarity they both have is that they both have ribosomes and a plasma membrane. …show more content…
Just like eukaryotes, prokaryotes also goes through polymerase and the process of having continuous and lagging replication. However, as mentioned earlier prokaryotes are much simpler in contrast eukaryotes which is has a higher complexity and its size than prokaryotes during replication eukaryote have more DNA than prokaryotes. Another difference is that eukaryotic cells have multiple points of origins than prokaryotic cells that only have one point of origin also it contains less polymerases than eukaryotes as well. However, prokaryotic cells replicate at a higher rate than eukaryotes relative to its
