Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells.

Pili - Help withconjugation – transferring of genetic material p.558,Stickto host’s cells
Flagella:Movement
Ribosomes- Makingproteins
DNA - Carries the genetic material
Cytoplasm - Contains DNA, Proteins and plasmid
Plasmid – piece of DNA , plays role during conjugation
Capsule – Protects against drying out, chemicals and host’s white blood cells.
Cell wall - Protects, givescell shapeEubacteria–has peptidoglycan
Cell membrane – Regulates the movement of materials in and out of the cell
