Question

question 4/10
which statement describes all prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
a. ribosomes are present in the cytoplasm.
b. water and materials are stores in vacuoles.
c. chloroplasts are used for photosynthesis.
d. cell walls provide support and shape.

Explanation:

• Option A: Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have ribosomes in the cytoplasm for protein synthesis.
• Option B: Vacuoles are mainly in eukaryotic cells (e.g., plant cells have large vacuoles), not all prokaryotic cells.
• Option C: Chloroplasts are only in some eukaryotic cells (e.g., plant cells for photosynthesis), not in prokaryotic cells.
• Option D: Not all eukaryotic cells have cell walls (e.g., animal cells lack cell walls), while some prokaryotic cells have cell walls.

Answer:

A. Ribosomes are present in the cytoplasm.
