Cells are categorized as either prokaryotic or eukaryotic. Classify the characteristics as being unique to prokaryotic cells, common to both cell types, or unique to eukaryotic cells. Move each description into the correct category. Prokaryotic cells lack a true cytoskeleton use ribosomes to synthesize proteins Both cell types contain DNA nuclear membrane surrounds DNA Eukaryotic cells relatively small, typically less than 10 ?m in size
