Which type of cells lack nuclei and membrane-bound organelles?

• Eukaryotic cells

• Plant cells

• Animal cells

• Prokaryotic cells

What is the main difference in size between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

• Prokaryotic cells are larger

• Eukaryotic cells are smaller

• They are the same size

• Prokaryotic cells are smaller

What is the function of the nucleoid region in prokaryotic cells?

• It is the region where DNA is concentrated

• It is responsible for protein synthesis

• It is a membrane-bound organelle

• It contains the cell's ribosomes

Where does transcription occur in eukaryotic cells?

• In the cytoplasm

• In the Golgi apparatus

• In the rough ER

• In the nucleus

What is the role of free-floating ribosomes in eukaryotic cells?

• They synthesize lipids

• They make proteins that stay within the cell

• They detoxify the cell

• They make proteins that are exported out of the cell

What is the main function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?

• Protein synthesis

• DNA replication

• Lipid synthesis and detoxification

• Cell division

What is the role of the Golgi apparatus in the cell?

• It stores genetic information

• It packages, modifies, and sorts proteins

• It produces ATP

• It synthesizes proteins

What is the primary function of mitochondria?

• Protein synthesis

• Lipid synthesis

• Photosynthesis

• ATP production through aerobic respiration
