Q

cells compared with prokaryotic cells

A

Bacterial cell is more smaller than human cell.
Bacterial cell has cell wall but human cell does not
Bacterial cell lack a nucleus but human cell has nucleus .
Bacterial cell lacks membrane bound organelles but human cell has membrane bound organelles
Bacteria has 70s ribosomes , human cell has 80s ribosomes .
Bacterial DNA is circular but human DNA is linear .
Bacterial DNA is not associated with his tone, human DNA is bound to histone

Q

Eukaryotic cells produce and release proteins . Outline the role of organelles in the production, transport, and release of proteins from eukaryotic cells

A

DNA in nucleus is code for protein
