Which of the statements is true regarding prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

• Prokaryotic cells have membrane bound organelles

• Eukaryotic cells have membrane bound organelles

• Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus

• Eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus

Where is the genetic material of a prokaryotic cell stored?

• Nucleus

• Nucleolus

• Nucleoid

• Nowhere

Which of these is not considered a membrane-bound organelle and is therefore found in BOTH prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

• Ribosomes

• Mitochondria

• Peroxisomes

• Lysosomes

Plant cells have these but animal cells do not. 

• Nucleus and cell mem
• cell membrane and cell wa
• chloroplast and cell wall
• Chloroplasts and mitochondria

There are some similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Which of the following structures is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

• lysosome
• mitochondrion
• nucleus
• ribosome

Which of the following best summarizes an advantage for eukaryotic cells in having internal membranes?

• Eukaryotic cells are able to reproduce faster because of the presence of organelles.

• Some organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, are similar to prokaryotic cells in structure.

• Internal membranes allow cells to separate specific reactions, increasing their efficiency.

• Compartmentalization leads to a higher mutation rate in DNA, which leads to more new species.
