What is the structure of DNA in a eukaryotic cell and a prokaryotic cell?

• Eukaryotic is linear, Prokaryotic is in loops
• Eukaryotic is in loops, Prokaryotic is linear
• Eukaryotic is linear, Prokaryotic is linear
• Eukaryotic is in loops, Prokaryotic is in loops

What is the name of the solution that is mainly salt, water and proteins and is found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells?

• Lysosome
• Plasmid
• Glycocalyx
• Cytoplasm

Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus to protect the DNA from breaking down.

• That's true!
• That's false

Which one of the choices below is not a reason that mitochondria’s inner membrane is folded?

• Increase surface area
• Allow more ATP production
• Increase enzyme production
• None of the above

Which of these organelles are only found in eukaryotic cells?

• Cell Wall
• Nucleus
• Ribosomes
• Pili

A prokaryotic cell is typically much larger than a eukaryotic cell.

• What? That's so false
• Oh yeah, that's true!

How do eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells divide?

• Eukaryotic through binary fission, Prokaryotic through mitosis
• Eukaryotic through mitosis, Prokaryotic through binary fission
• Both divide through binary fission
• Both divide through mitosis

Which of the following is true?

• Prokaryotic cells contain few membrane bound organelles
• Eukaryotic cells contain several membrane bound organelles
• Neither type of cell contains membrane bound organelles
• Both types of cell contain different membrane bound organelles

Why are the thylakoids inside a chloroplast arranged in stacks?

• Stacking the thylakoids allows the chloroplast to focus the sunlight they use to make sugar, like a magnifying glass
• They can fit more thylakoids in a small area, allowing for more chloroplasts to be contained within a plant cell
• The thylakoids must be stacked on top of each other to work
• The stacking arrangement of the thylakoid is critical because it allows the chlorophyll to become green
