For attachment and genetic exchange

17
Q

MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE

Prokaryotic Cell has a few organelles (no membrane-bound organelles).

18
Q

MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE

Eukaryotic Cell has a few organelles (no
membrane-bound
organelles).

A

FALSE - PROKARYOTIC CELL

19
Q

MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE

Prokaryotic Cell has a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism.

20
Q

It lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle

A

Prokaryotic Cell

21
Q

Two Kingdoms of Prokaryotic Cell

A
  • Eubacteria (bacteria)
  • Archaebacteria (Archae)
22
Q

Basic structure of Prokaryotes

A
  • DNA
  • Cell/plasma membrane
  • Cell wall
  • Ribosomes

Some use structures like pili,cilia, and flagellum to move in aquatic environments.

23
Q

It has a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound compartments or sacs

A

Eukaryotic Cells

24
Q

Eukaryotic means

A

TRUE KERNEL OR TRUE NUCLEUS

25
MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE The word “organelle” means "large organ"
FLASE - LITTLE ORGAN
26
The Four Kingdoms of Eukaryotic Cell
* Protista * Fungi * Plantae * Animalia
27
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE Eukaryotes can be multicellular or unicellular.
TRUE
28
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE Eukaryotes contain few organelles
FALSE - MANY ORGANELLES
29
It is an outer covering that separates the cell’s interior from its surrounding environment
PLASMA MEMBRANE
30
It consist of a jelly-like region within the cell in which other cellular components are found
CYTOPLASM
31
It is the the genetic material of the cell.
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
32
The particles that synthesize proteins.
RIBOSOMES
33
Four common components of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
* Plasma Membrane * Cytoplasm * DNA * Ribosomes
33
They are significantly smaller than eukaryotic cells.
Prokaryotic Cells
34
When does it becomes more and more difficult for the cell to acquire sufficient materials to support the processes inside the cell?
When the cell becomes larger
35
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE Prokaryotic cells are easier to acquire sufficient materials to support the processes inside the cell.
TRUE It is because prokaryotic cells are smaller than eukaryotic cell.
36
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus.
TRUE
37
MODIFIED TRUE OR FLASE The DNA location of Eukaryotic cell is found at the Nucleoid.
FALSE - NUCLEUS
