Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes
Similarities:
Cell Membrane- allows substances in and out of the cell.
Ribosomes- both can assemble proteins
Vesicles- substances can be transported throughout the cell.
Vacuoles- energy and nutrients can be stored
Differences:
Eukaryotes have a nucleus and prokaryotes do not.
Eukaryotes hav membrane bund organelles and prokaryotes do not.
Eukaryotes contain lysosomes while prokaryotes do not.
Eukaryotes have mitochondria and prokaryotes do not.
Prokaryotes does not have an endoplasmic reticulum while eukaryotes do.
Prokaryotes have small ribosomes while eukaryotes have larger ribosomes.
Plant vs. Animal Cells
Similarities:
Cell Membrane- allows substances to enter and exit the cell
Nucleus- control center of cell, contains DNA.
Endoplasmic Reticulum- manufactures lipids.
Ribosomes- both can assemble proteins.
Cytoskeleton- both have a structure.
Mitochondria- both can produce energy.
Vesicles- transports substances throughout cell.
Vacuole- both can store nutrients and energy.
Golgi Bodies- modifies and packages proteins.
Differences:
Plant cells contain cell walls while animal cells do not.
Plant cells contain chloroplasts while animal cells do not.
Plant cells have one large central vacuole while animal cells have more than one small vacuoles.
Animal cells have lysosomes while plants cells do not.
Animal cells contain centrioles while plant cells do not.
Animal cells come in a variety of shapes while plant cells are usually rectangular.
