Types of Cells
Objective:
You will be able to explain the differences
between the 2 types of cells.
Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Cells
1. No nucleus
2. No membrane covered
organelles
3. Circular DNA
4.Examples: Bacteria!
Draw picture!!!!
Prokaryotic Cells
Did you know?
Prokaryotic cells were
probably the first type of
cells to exist on Earth and
are commonly found in the
oldest fossils ever found.
Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Cells
1. No nucleus
2. No membrane covered
organelles
3. Circular DNA
4.Examples: Bacteria!
Draw picture!!!!
1. Nucleus
2.Membrane covered
organelles
3. Linear DNA (line)
4.Examples: Every other
type of cell: animal, plant
fungus, protist
Eukaryotic Cells
Did you know….
Eukaryotic cells are
more complex and are
larger. This type of cell
has a nucleus and
many organelles inside.
This allows the cell to
perform many different
jobs in multicellular
organisms!

•Neurons, or nerve
cells are the longest
cells in the human
body. They can be
more than 1meter
long!
•Red blood cells do
not have a nucleus.
They are produced in
the "flat" bones of the
body, live for about
120 days, and die
without reproducing.
Their sole purpose is
to carry oxygen and
carbon dioxide in the
blood.
