1. Lesson Objective:
You will be able to differentiate between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

2. table,
In your journal

3. What is the main difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell?

4. What is a “nucleus”?

6. Prokaryotic Cells: Does not have a nucleus! Called “prokaryote”.
Bacteria cells.

7. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial cells
Does not have a nucleus!

9. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial cells
Does not have a nucleus!
Plant and animal cells
Has a nucleus!

10. Which do you think are larger, prokaryotic cells or eukaryotic cells?

12. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial cells
Does not have a nucleus!
Smaller
Plant and animal cells
Has a nucleus!
Larger

13. Prokaryotic Cells: Defined by their shape! Classified as either:
1. Rod
2. Spherical
3. Spiral

14. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial cells
Does not have a nucleus!
Smaller
Defined by their shape
Plant and animal cells
Has a nucleus!
Larger

15. What are “genes”?

16. Genes:
Genes hold the information to build and maintain cells through DNA.
They are codes that effect how an organism looks!
Each physical trait has its own gene.
An organism’s “DNA” is all of its’ genes!

17. Genes Examples:
Eye color.
Hair color.
Blood type.
Height.
Diseases.

19. Prokaryotic Cells:
DNA is located throughout the cell!

20. Eukaryotic Cells Prokaryotic Cells Plant and animal cells
Bacterial cells
Does not have a nucleus!
Smaller
Defined by their shape
DNA is located throughout the cell
Plant and animal cells
Has a nucleus!
Larger
DNA stored in Nucleus

21. Draw a picture of a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell at the bottom of your notes. No need to draw organelles but must include nucleus and/or DNA .

22. Pro, No. Eu, Do.
Prokaryotic cells have NO NUCLEUS, Eukaryotic cells DO HAVE A NUCLEUS.

23. Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic?

28. Which statement is false?
A – Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells.
B – Prokaryotic cells are larger than eukaryotic cells.
C – Plants are made up of eukaryotic cells.
D – Bacteria is prokaryotic.
