2. Nucleolus is absent.

3. They have one chromosome.

4. No histone protein around DNA.

5. Ribosomes are of 70S.

7. No streaming movement of cytoplasm.

8. E.R. is absent.

9. Mitochondria is absent.

10. Golgi apparatus is absent.

11. Lysosomes are absent.

12. Respiratory enzymes are attached at innerside of plasmalemma.

13. Mesosomes may be present.

1. They have well defined nucleus bounded by double nuclear membrane.

2. Nucleolus is present.

3. They have a number of chromosomes.

4. Histone protein is present around DNA.

5. Ribosomes are of 80S.

8. E.R. is present.

9. Mitochondria is present.

10. Golgi apparatus is present.

11. Lysosomes are present.
