Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria and archaea, store their genetic information primarily in the form of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).

The presence or absence of a nucleus is the key difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and various membrane-bound organelles.

Bacteria are prokaryotic cells, meaning they lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.

Plant cells are eukaryotic cells, meaning they have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.

The cell wall in plant cells provides structural support and protection, helping to maintain the cell's shape and protect it from mechanical damage.

The nucleus in eukaryotic cells contains the cell's genetic material, including DNA, which is essential for controlling the cell's activities.

Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in eukaryotic cells through a process called cellular respiration.

Chloroplasts in plant cells are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in cells, using genetic information from DNA to assemble amino acids into proteins.

The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes that transports materials within the cell, including proteins and lipids.

The Golgi apparatus is responsible for packaging and distributing proteins in cells, modifying them and sorting them for transport to their final destinations.

Lysosomes are small organelles that contain enzymes that digest and recycle cellular waste, damaged organelles, and foreign materials.

The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments and tubules that maintains the cell's shape, provides structural support, and facilitates cell movement.

Centrioles are small, cylindrical structures found in animal cells that help organize microtubules during cell division, ensuring the proper distribution of chromosomes.

Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction in which a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells, each with its own copy of the genetic material.
