microscopes
Which of these is NOT true about eukaryotes?
They are older than prokaryotes.
They are larger than prokaryotes.
They are more complex than prokaryotes.

cell wall
nucleus
Which of these are eukaryotic? Check all that apply.
plant cells

archaea
Which of these is NOT part of modern cell theory?
(Which one is not true?)
Cells come from preexisting cells (cells that already exist).
Cells are the basic building blocks of all life.
All living things are made of one or more cells.
Cells can come from water without having another cell there.
