Key Differences Between Monera and Protista
- Monera are unicellular organism’s having prokaryotic cellular structure while Protista is also unicellular organisms though possess eukaryotic cellular organization.
- Cellular organelles are absent in Monera; whereas Protists have well defined as well membrane-bounded cellular organelles.
- Monera is simple in structure, with no complexity at the cellular level while Protista is complex in the structure at the cellular level.
- Monerans contains very small microorganisms and are found everywhere while in protist, organisms are though microscopic but larger in size than monerans.
- Mitochondria/ Chloroplast are not present in Monera; whereas mitochondria are present for cellular respiration and chloroplast for photosynthesis in Protista.
- Monerans does not possess a true nucleus whereas Protists has its own nuclei, bounded with the nuclear membrane.
- Mode of nutrition can be autotrophic or heterotrophic in Monera, whereas it can be holozoic or parasitic or photosynthetic in Protists.
- Flagella and Cilia are absent in Monera; It is used for locomotion in some organisms, some also have pseudopodia in Protists.
- Mode of reproduction is asexual by binary fission or budding and if sexual then through conjugation, transformation or transduction in monerans; and in Protists it is either through asexual (binary fission or multiple fission) or sexual.
