How many times larger is a eukaryotic cell than a prokaryotic cell

Answer:

The eukaryotic cell is 10 to 100 times larger than the prokaryotic cells.

Explanation:

The eukaryotic cell is 10 to 100 times larger than the prokaryotic cells. The prokaryotic cells are primitive, simpler in structure. The eukaryotic cells are complex in structure and have different adaptation for various cellular activities.  

All the cells have cytoplasm, cell membrane, nucleus. In prokaryotes, the nucleus is not well defined and no other membrane-bound organelles.

e.g. bacteria, archaea.

The diameter of prokaryotic cells is smaller than the eukaryotic cells. Because the transport of ions and cell division is faster in it. Its diameter ranges from 0.1 micrometers to 5.0 micrometers. While eukaryotic cell diameter is 10 to 100 micrometers.  

The small size of the prokaryotes is an advantage to its cellular processes whereas the eukaryotic cells are larger.  Because it has to adapt to the function of different cell organelles present in it.

serg [7]

Scientists have found that extracellular matrix component may induce specific gene expression in the embryonic tissues such as the liver and testes. For this to happen, there must be a direct communication between the extracellular matrix and the developing cells. The Integrins of transmembrane protein would most likely be involved in this kind of induction.

Integrins are the main principal receptors used by the cells of  animal to bind to the matrix of extracellular. They are heterodimers and they function as transmembrane linkers between the actin cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. A cell can regulate the sticky activity of its integrins from within.

Kruka [31]

Researchers selected candidate genes by identifying homozygous tracts shared by all three siblings along with the parental phenotype, this type of study is applied for the inheritance of recessive genes. Since the recessive genes can not be expressed in heterozygous genotype, the back tracking of carriers and homozygous recessive individual will help understand its inheritance pattern. The inheritance of dyt2 can be autosomal recessive. It is usually passed on to progeny of two carriers.
