Bacteria and Archaea, the other two domains of life, are prokaryotic cells. They do not possess membrane-bound cellular compartments, such as nuclei. Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells bear a ...

Flagella are primarily used for cell movement and are found in prokaryotes as well as some eukaryotes. The prokaryotic flagellum spins, creating forward movement by a corkscrew shaped filament.

A nucleus is one of many membrane-bound compartments that distinguishes our eukaryotic cells from the prokaryotic cells of microorganisms like bacteria. Eukaryotic cells also possess energy ...
