Summary Introduction

To explore:

The evolutionary history of the prokaryotes and their relationship to the eukaryotes.

Given:

The evolutionary history of the prokaryotes is related to that of the eukaryotes as they are descended from a single common ancestor.

Introduction:

There are two types of cells in the life forms based on the presence or absence of nucleus and the nuclear envelope. Prokaryotes are the simpler form of cells which lack nucleus while the eukaryotes have a well defined nucleus surrounded by the nuclear membrane. Though the prokaryotes and eukaryotes are structurally of two different forms, it was stated that all the present day cells including both prokaryotes and eukaryotes are evolved from a common ancestor.
