Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells

I wasn't going to pay attention to this ep of Doctor Who because the description said spiders. But then the Doctor was like "it's prokaryotic" and I got super excited because those are my fave kind of organism. But like... I'm still freaked out. Cos they look like spiders.

Do any of you know anything about cells?

I need help with some homework.

prokaryotic cells

unicellular bacteria

no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles!!! - nucleoid region: DNA floating in cytoplasm, no true nucleus or nuclear membrane - cytoplasm: inside portion of the cell - cytosol: fluid within the cell 

generally considered first form of life - were most likely anaerobic

cell membrane: regulates transport; selective permeability

cell wall:  protective layer external to cell membrane - does not contain phospholipids or transport proteins

ribosomes: protein synthesis location

capsule: outside of cell wall; made of carbohydrate - pathogenic (causes disease)
