Prokaryotic cells: lack membrane-bound organelles, relatively small - typically less than 10 μm in size.
Both cell types: use ribosomes to synthesize proteins, contain DNA.
Eukaryotic cells: complete copy of DNA stored in multiple chromosomes.
In particular, prokaryotic cells have no nucleus and no membrane-bound organelles, therefore their ribosomes float freely intracellularly. On the other hand, eukaryotic cells have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Also, their DNA is bound to proteins and stored in the form of chromosomes in the nucleus.
