This week in AP Biology we didn't really learn anything new. We simply just reviewed over the cell for our quiz. We talked about the differences between a eukaryote and a prokaryote and also what they either share in common or what they lack in common. The most obvious reason is that prokaryotes do not have a nucleus and eurakyotes do. Another differences is that prokaryotes are obviously smaller and they also have a different structure. The only two things they have in common is that they both have vesicles and vacuoles. Bacteria and Archea are prokaryotes because they do not have a nucleus and eurakyotes are animals and plants because they do have a nucleus. Scientist believe that some prokaryotes were ingested by eukaryotes. The evidence they have is that the mitochondria was once a prokaryote and it is now present in a eukaryote. Like I said before, we did not really talk about anything new because we were mainly focusing on reviewing for our quiz. To show you more differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, here is a picture to show you:Saturday, October 5, 2013

"The only two things they have in common is that they both have vesicles and vacuoles" This is not actually an accurate statement. Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and DNA.
