$1.$ Size : generally $1$. Size: generally small $(1-10\mu\text{m})1\mu\text{m}=10^{-6}\text{m}.$ $1.$ Size: generally large $( 5-100\ \mu m)$.
$2.$ Nuclear region:poorly defined because of the absence of a nuclear membrance, and known as nucleoid $2.$ Nuclear region: well defined and surrounded by a nuclear membrane.
$3.$ Chromosome: single. $3.$ More than one chromosome.
$4.$ Membrane-bound cell organelles absent. $4.$ membrene-bound cell organelles such as mitochondria, plastids, etc., are present.
