Question

23 multiple choice 1 point which of the following can prove yeast is a eukaryote? yeast cell contains ribosomes. yeast cell contains mitochondria. yeast cell contains plasma membrane. yeast cell has a cell wall.

Explanation:

To determine if yeast is a eukaryote, we analyze the options:

• Ribosomes: Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have ribosomes, so this doesn't prove it's a eukaryote.
• Mitochondria: Mitochondria are membrane - bound organelles, and prokaryotes lack membrane - bound organelles. Eukaryotes have them, so the presence of mitochondria in yeast cells shows it's a eukaryote.
• Plasma membrane: Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a plasma membrane, so this can't prove it's a eukaryote.
• Cell wall: Some prokaryotes (like bacteria) also have a cell wall, so this doesn't prove it's a eukaryote.

Answer:

The option "Yeast cell contains mitochondria." (the second option among the given choices)
