Chapter 7, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The similarity and contrast in the structure of a generalized plant cell, animal cell, and prokaryotic cell. And also discuss the features that are common in all the three cells as well as features that are uncommon in all the three cells.
Introduction:
The cells are basic, structural, and functional units of life. They are also considered to be the smallest units, which are alive. There are three types of cells namely, plant cell, animal cell, and prokaryotic cells.

Students have asked these similar questions
List the eight cellular parts that are specific to ALL eukaryotes. This should not include any cellular parts listed above that both prokaryotes and eukaryotes will have. This also should not include any cellular parts that only specific types of eukaryotes will have (example: cilia). Then state the function of the cellular part (what does it do for the cell?).
Make a T-chart using the following paragraph:
All living organisms will fit into two different categories; prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Eukaryotes, the more complex cells, are made up of one or many cells. These eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotes, the simpler cells, do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. Almost all the prokaryote organisms are single-celled. It is important to know that the only way we can see these organisms is by using a microscope.
Differentiate the structures and functions of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell. Provide at-least 3 examples each.
Differentiate the structures and functions of plant cell and animal cell.
