Above is an example of how
the living world is dived into two distinguished groups. At the
higher level, All organisms must be identified either as eukaryotes
or prokaryotes.

Characteristics | Prokaryotes | Eukaryotes |
Nucleus | Absent | Present with nuclear membrane |
DNA | Open. Single closed loop, not associated with protein. | Multiple chromosomes, tightly coiled and supported with proteins. |
Ribosome ( site of protein synthesis) | Smaller (50s/30s=70s) | Larger (60s/40s=80s) |
