Biological evolution is an idea that not many people understand. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, as taught previously in high school, are the two main cells in all living organisms. Prokaryotic cells: cells that are comprised of only one cell and therefore does not have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells: cells that can be comprised of both one or more cells and therefore can contain a nucleus. These two cells allow for vast variation in the living organisms that live on. In simple terms, prokaryotic cells cannot form anything to complicated. Eukaryotic cells can form complex life forms. Using this information, we can say that we, humans, are comprised of eukaryotic cells.
