1
Q
Give the 4 organelles present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
A
- plasma membrane
- cytosol
- DNA
- ribosome
2
Q
Differentiate cytosol and cytoplasm.
A
The cytoplasm is the region between the plasma membrane and the nucleus, whereas the cytosol is a semifluid substance where the organelles are suspended.
3
Q
