
CLE 3210.1.1 Compare the structure and
function of cellular organelles in both
prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
SPI 3210.1.2 Distinguish between prokaryotic
and eukaryotic cells
CLE 3210.1.4 Describe the processes of cell
growth and reproduction.


Differentiate between prokaryotic and
eukaryotic cell division
Distinguish DNA structures between
prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
Eukaryotes




Membrane bound
nucleus
Membrane bound
organelles
Larger
DNA is coiled around
proteins to form
chromosomes
Prokaryotes

NO membrane bound
nucleus

around proteins circular chromosome
Eukaryotes

Asexual reproduction

The cell cycle
 Interphase
 Mitosis
Prokaryotes

Binary Fission



DNA is NOT coiled around proteins
Circular chromosome
Attached to the inner surface of the plasma
membrane
Binary Fission
•The
division of a
prokaryotic cell into two
identical daughter cells
•DNA (circular
chromosome) is copied.
•Cell grows to twice its
normal size
•Membrane pinches in
toward the middle (like
a cleavage furrow)
•A new cell wall forms
around each membrane
•Eventually, the dividing
prokaryote is split into
two independent,
identical cells
Binary
Fission

chromosome) is
copied.
•Cell grows to

Tell your
fish how
this
process is
similar to
mitosis
FISH
Tell your cat
how this
process is
different
from
mitosis
