Eukaryote cells:
-has a nucleus
-tends to be multicellular (consisting of many cells)
-meiosis + fusion of gametes (sex cells)
-have mitochondria (powerhouse of the cell)
eg) animal and plant cells

Prokaryote cells:
-no nucleus (or membrane-bound nucleus)
-tends to be unicellular (consisting of one cell)
-no mitochondria
-partial meiosis
eg) bacteria and archaea
