| The difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Eukaryotes are mainly multicellular organisms that multiply through mitosis and meiosis. Prokaryotes are unicellular, multiply in two.
Prokaryotic DNA is freely located in the cytoplasm and has the shape of a ring. Eukaryotes have a nucleus, where linear DNA is located.
The size of the eukaryotic cell is significantly larger than the size of the prokaryotic cell, while eukaryotes are characterized by the presence of phagocytosis, which contributes to adequate cell nutrition.
