5th pd Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic Cells

Front

What are prokaryotic cells?

Back

Prokaryotic cells are simple, single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Examples include bacteria.

Front

What are eukaryotic cells?

Back

Eukaryotic cells are complex cells that have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. They can be single-celled or multicellular, such as plants and animals.

Front

True or False: Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus.

Back

False

Front

What is a ribosome?

Back

Ribosomes are small structures found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that are responsible for protein synthesis.

Front

Name a characteristic that distinguishes eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic cells.

Back

Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Front

True or False: All eukaryotic cells are multicellular.

Back

False

Front

What is the function of the cell membrane?

Back

The cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell, providing protection and support.

Front

Which type of cell is generally larger, prokaryotic or eukaryotic?

Back

Eukaryotic cells are generally larger than prokaryotic cells.

Front

What is the role of organelles in eukaryotic cells?

Back

Organelles perform specific functions within the cell, such as energy production, protein synthesis, and waste processing.

Front

True or False: Prokaryotic cells can have different numbers of organelles based on their function.

Back

True
