Give an example of an analogy for describing the difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells

A prokaryotic cell is a TV with 4 channels available. On the other hand, a eukaryotic cell is a smart TV with many available channels and internet access.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells are simpler than eukaryotic cells, so we can compare them to a TV with a limited number of channels and no internet access. In these, DNA is not surrounded by a membrane, there is no nucleus defined by the library (nuclear membrane) and we can find ribosomes scattered in the cytoplasm, organelles that are responsible for protein synthesis. Circulating DNA molecules, plasmids, can also be found.

Eukaryotic cells, on the other hand, have larger size and complexity, so we can compare it to a TV with many available channels and internet access. To begin with, the nucleus of these cells is individualized, surrounded by the library. Its cytoplasm is interconnected by a network of tubes and membranous channels and is where, besides ribosomes, are also found mitochondria, granular and non-granular endoplasmic reticulum, golgiense complex, lysosomes, peroxisomes, centrioles, among other organelles.
