d. fungi

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 22: The nucleus stores genetic information (DNA) and controls cell activities. Other options: Lysosomes break down waste (A is wrong). Ribosomes produce proteins (C is wrong). Vesicles transport materials (D is wrong).
  • Question 23: Mitochondria produce energy (ATP) for the cell. Chloroplasts make sugar (A is wrong). Vesicles transport proteins (C is wrong). Nucleus stores DNA (D is wrong).
  • Question 24: Ribosomes make proteins. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum makes lipids (A is wrong). Peroxisomes break down toxins (B is wrong). Mitochondria make energy (D is wrong).
  • Question 25: Prokaryotic cells have DNA floating freely in the cytoplasm. They lack a nucleus (A is wrong) and membrane - bound organelles (B is wrong). Most prokaryotes are unicellular (D is wrong).
  • Question 26: Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that stores DNA. Prokaryotes have no nucleus (A is wrong). Eukaryotes have membrane - bound organelles (C is wrong). Not all eukaryotes (like animal cells) have a cell wall (D is wrong).
  • Question 27: Humans are eukaryotes as their cells have a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles.
  • Question 28: Bacteria are prokaryotes. They lack a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles. Viruses are not cells (C is wrong). Fungi are eukaryotes (D is wrong).

Answer:

  1. B. Store genetic information and control cell activities

  3. C. Make proteins
  4. C. Has DNA floating freely in the cytoplasm
  5. B. Has a nucleus that stores DNA
  6. B. Eukaryotes
  7. A. Prokaryotes
