Eukaryotic vs. Prokaryotic


Definitions:
Prokaryotic - Cells that lack a membrane-bond nucleus.

Eukaryotic - Cells that have an enclosed membrane. 

Summary:
Knowing that the prefix "kary" meant nucleus, I wasn't surprised to find out what these 2 words meant. Prokaryotic cells don't have an enclosed membrane on the nucleus like eukaryotic cells do.

    Are there any other differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic other than just the nucleus?
