Question
prokaryotic cell eukaryotic cell note: figures not drawn to scale what two structures does this eukaryotic cell have that the prokaryotic cell does not have? 1 ribosomes and chloroplasts 2 mitochondria and a nucleus 3 chromosomes and cytoplasm 4 flagella and a cell membrane
Brief Explanations
- Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles like mitochondria.
- Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus (which houses the genetic material in a membrane - bound structure) and mitochondria (a membrane - bound organelle for energy production).
- Ribosomes are present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Chloroplasts are not shown in the given eukaryotic cell diagram (and are mainly in plant cells). Chromosomes (in the form of a nucleoid) and cytoplasm are in prokaryotes. Flagella and cell membrane are also present in prokaryotes.
