Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA. read more

Animal cells also have something plant cells don't: a Centriole. Plant cells are prokaryotic. Eukaryotic cells have a nuclei and membrane bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells are cells without a nuclei or membrane bound organelles. A bacteria cell is an example of a Prokaryotic cell. Plant and animal cell are examples for eukaryotic cells. read more

Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds genetic material) as well as membrane-bound organelles. Genetic material in eukaryotes is contained within a nucleus within the cell and DNA is organized into chromosomes. Eukaryotic organisms may be multicellular or single-celled organisms. read more
