Without consulting figures in this chapter, sketch the characteristic prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell types and label their pertinent organelle and membrane systems.
Explanation
There are many major differences between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell. A prokaryotic cell has no nucleus. In fact, it lacks any kind of membrane bound organelles. This includes the Golgi apparatus, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosome, the chloroplast and the mitochondria. Both cell types have a lipid bilayer to contain the cell.
The following is a depiction of an animal eukaryotic cell with all major organelles labeled.
The following is a depiction of a plant eukaryotic cell. Unlike animal cells, plant cells have cell walls, chloroplasts, and a vacuole, which fills most of the cell.
The following is a depiction of a prokaryotic cell. Note the lack of any membrane enclosed organelles.

The following is a depiction of an animal eukaryotic cell with all major organelles labeled.
