Question

what solution will cause a cell to stay the same size? *
a. hypotonic
b. isotonic
c. hypertonic

what type of cell has a nucleus? (select all that apply) *
a. prokaryote
b. eukaryote
c. animal
d. plant

what type of cell does not have a nucleus? (select all that apply) *
a. prokaryote
b. eukaryote
c. animal
d. plant

Explanation:

First Question:
Brief Explanations

An isotonic solution has the same solute concentration as the cell's interior. So, there's no net movement of water (osmosis) across the cell membrane, and the cell size remains unchanged. Hypotonic solutions have lower solute concentration, causing water to enter the cell (cell swells). Hypertonic solutions have higher solute concentration, causing water to leave the cell (cell shrinks).

Brief Explanations

Prokaryotes (e.g., bacteria) lack a true nucleus. Eukaryotes (including animal and plant cells) have a membrane - bound nucleus. Animal and plant cells are types of eukaryotic cells, so they have a nucleus.

Brief Explanations

Prokaryotic cells (like bacteria) do not have a membrane - bound nucleus. Eukaryotic cells (animal and plant cells are eukaryotic) have a nucleus. So, prokaryotes are the cells without a nucleus.

Answer:

B. Isotonic
