Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic Primitive modern Simple complex DNA is in nucleiod region DNA is in nucleus No membrane bound membrane bound organelles organelles Smaller Larger Bacteria, Archae Protists, Fungi, Plants Animals
Prokaryotic Cell
Eukaryotic Cell
6 kingdoms Archae: single-celled, prokaryotic, extreme environments, look like bacteria Bacteria (Eubacteria): true bacteria, single-celled, prokaryotic, includes E. coli Protista: single-celled plants and animals, eukaryotic, includes Paramecium (pond water organisms) Fungi: multicellular, eukaryotic, chemotrophs, decompsers, includes: yeasts, molds and mushrooms Plantae: multicellular, eukaryotic, autotrophs (photosynthesis), includes: grass, shrubs, trees Animalia: multicellular, eukaryotic, heterotrophs, motile, includes: you!
3 Domains 1. Archae: Prokaryotic cells Extreme environments 2. Bacteria: Prokaryotic cells Extreme environments 3. Eukarya: Eukaryotic Cells Kingdoms: Protists, Fungi, Plants, Animals
Archae: Prokaryotic cells Extreme environments Bacteria: Prokaryotic cells Extreme environments
5 Functions of Bacteria Decomposers Soil producers Produce organic material Facilitate digestion Pathogens (disease causing organisms)
