Question

which structures are found in each cell type? complete the table.

Explanation:

Step1: Lysosomes

Lysosomes are membrane - bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells lack membrane - bound organelles. Plant cells have some lysosome - like functions but not the typical lysosomes. Animal cells have lysosomes.

Step2: Vacuole

Prokaryotic cells do not have vacuoles. Plant cells have a large central vacuole. Animal cells have small vacuoles (but in basic cell - structure comparisons, if the focus is on the prominent vacuole, plant cells are marked as having and animal cells as not having in a simple sense).

Step3: DNA

All cells (prokaryotic, plant, animal) have DNA as the genetic material. Prokaryotic DNA is in the nucleoid region, while plant and animal cell DNA is in the nucleus (and mitochondria and chloroplasts for plant cells).

Answer:

  • Lysosomes: Prokaryotic cells (✗), Plant cells (✗), Animal cells (✓)
  • Vacuole: Prokaryotic cells (✗), Plant cells (✓), Animal cells (✗) (Note: Animal cells have small vacuoles, but plant cells have a large central vacuole. If the question is about a large vacuole, this is correct. If it's about any vacuole, animal cells would have a ✓ too, but typically in basic cell structure questions, the emphasis is on the large central vacuole in plants)
  • DNA: Prokaryotic cells (✓), Plant cells (✓), Animal cells (✓)
