Question

question 9
whereas a _ organism has to conduct all life processes by itself, a _ organism has groups of cells that specialize to perform specific functions.

eukaryotic, prokaryotic
eukaryotic, single-celled
single-celled, multicellular
multicellular, single-celled

question 10
prokaryotes and eukaryotes have all of the following in common except ___.

ribosomes
dna
mitochondria
cytoplasm

Explanation:

Analyze Question 9

Using the Cellular Composition knowledge point

• An organism that conducts all life processes within a single cell is a single-celled (unicellular) organism.
• An organism with specialized groups of cells performing distinct functions is a multicellular organism.
• Therefore, the correct pair to fill in the blanks is "single-celled, multicellular".

Analyze Question 10

Using the Prokaryotic Cells and Eukaryotic Cells knowledge points

• Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes share universal cellular features: ribosomes, DNA, cytoplasm, and a plasma membrane.
• Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found only in eukaryotic cells.
• Therefore, the exception that they do not have in common is mitochondria.

Answer:

Question 9

• eukaryotic, prokaryotic
• eukaryotic, single-celled
• single-celled, multicellular (Correct answer)
• multicellular, single-celled

Question 10

• ribosomes
• DNA
• mitochondria (Correct answer)
• cytoplasm
