Comparison of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells

Comparison of Plant and Animal Cells Introduction Eukaryotic cells are very complex; there are many organelles, each serving a distinct function, present in eukaryotic cells. We can divide the eukaryotic group of cells in to two main groups, according to the presence of these membrane bound organelles, and the structural differences amongst the cells and their organelles. The two groups of eukaryotic cells are plant and animal cells. Nucleus The reason that plant and animal …showed first 75 words of 3547 total…

The gap junction occurs when a patch of proteins called a connexon connects with a similar patch of proteins on the membrane of the other animal cell. The intracellular pores created by these gap junctions allows for the transport of inorganic ions, sugars, amino acids, vitamins, and other small molecules between the cytoplasm of both cells.
