Eukaryotic cells are advanced cells having all membrane-bound organelles.
Prokaryotic cell
Eukaryotic cell
The nucleus is not membrane-bound.
Membrane-bound the nucleus is visible.
2. There is one chromosome, but no real chromosome plastids. 2. There are several numbers of chromosomes present.
3. There is no endocytosis or exocytosis.
3. Exocytosis and endocytosis were observed.
4. Transcription takes place in the cytoplasm, which is devoid of lysosomes and peroxisomes. 4. Transcription takes place within the nucleus.
5. Examples - Archaea and Bacteria 5. Examples - animals, fungi, plants, and protists
