Which of the following statements best describes one major difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells? A) Eukaryotic cells are more advanced complicated cells, while prokaryotic cells are simple and primitive cell types. B) Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound nucleus while prokaryotic cells do not. C) Eukaryotic cells have cell walls, while Prokaryotic cells do not. D) Both A

00:01 The question says, so here in this question we are asked to pick the correct statement that is given about the prokaryotic cell and also the eukaryotic cell.

00:11 So we have been given options.

00:14 So from that we have to pick the correct statement.

00:16 So what is a prokaryotic cell? and also what do you mean by a eukaryotic cell? so let us understand the basic differences between these two cells before picking out the answers.

00:31 So, prokaryotic cell as we all know is a primitive cell type and it has no true nucleus, that it lacks a definite nucleus and the dna, that is the genetic material of that organism, is scattered in the cytoplasm itself.

00:48 And if we come to the eukaryotic cell, eukaryotic cell is the one which has true nucleus, that is a membrane bound nucleus, a nucleus which has a distinctive membrane enclosing these structures.

01:02 Okay and also the dna of this organism is inside this membrane bound nucleus.

01:09 So that is why we call it as a definite nucleus.

01:13 So coming to the options.

01:15 So cell wall, if we come to cell wall, usually this structures, that is the cell wall, is seen in plants, that is the members of the kingdom plant tail are having the cell walls.

01:27 So angiosperms if we take is an excellent example for eukaryotes or the eukaryotic cell type.

01:34 And here we can see the cell wall, right? and what is the cell wall made up of? cell wall is made up of chiefly the cellulose.

01:44 And coming to the prokaryotic cell type, we can give an example of cyanobacteria here.

01:51 So cyanobacteria being a prokaryotic cell also has a cell.

01:57 So, so both the prokaryotic cell and also the eukaryotic cell in that case has cell one.

02:05 Now coming to the cell size.

02:07 So what is the cell size of a prokaryotic cell? so prokaryotic cells are generally smaller than that of the eukaryotic cell and their size ranges from 0 .1 to 5 micrometer that is represented as mu -m.

02:25 And eukaryotic cell is a generally larger than the prokaryotic cell and its size ranges from 10 to 100 micrometer clearly stating the difference.

02:38 Hence eukaryotic cell is larger than the prokaryotic cell...
