Question 10 Which of the following is NOT a characteristic that prokaryotes and eukaryotes share? All cells have membrane bound organelles and a nucleus b All cells have cell membranes All cells have ribosomes c Od All cells have DNA and RNA

1 answer

The statement that is NOT a characteristic that prokaryotes and eukaryotes share is:

a) All cells have membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus.

This is incorrect because prokaryotes do not have membrane-bound organelles or a nucleus; they have a simpler cellular structure. Eukaryotes, on the other hand, do contain membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus. The other options (having cell membranes, ribosomes, and DNA/RNA) are characteristics shared by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
