What you’ll learn to do: Compare prokaryotes and eukaryotes
In Introduction to Biology, we discussed the diversity of life on earth and mentioned how there are over 1.9 million species of living organisms on earth today. All these species of organisms have one of two different types of cells. In this section, we will compare the two cell types: prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
For example, both animal and plant cells are classified as eukaryotic cells, whereas bacterial cells are classified as prokaryotic.
