Differences Between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells

This video tutorial explains the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are large, complex, and have a nucleus enclosing their genetic material, along with other membrane-bound organelles. They can be unicellular or multicellular, with animals and plants as examples. Prokaryotic cells are small, simple, and lack a nucleus, with genetic material free-floating in the cell. Bacteria are examples of prokaryotes, which are always unicellular.
