Eukaryotic Cell
Single circular
chromosome
Multiple linear
chromosomes
Chromosome found
in a cytoplasmic
region called the
nucleoid.
Chromosomes found
in a membranebound nucleus.
No internal
membranes

plasma membrane
Extensive network of
internal membranes
Common Components
and Cellular Organization
Plasma Membrane
boundary surrounding the cell
Genetic material: DNA
located in a membrane-bound nucleus
for eukaryotic cells
Cytoplasm
Semi-fluid matrix containing enzymes
and organelles
(enzyme = biological catalyst)
Cytoskeleton
network of filaments and tubules in cytoplasm
that maintains cell shape, allows movement
