Question

What 3 pieces of information belong to eukaryotes?



Contains true nucleus

Does not contain membrane-bound organelles

Example - Protist organisms

Has a mitochondrion organelle

DNA is circular

Always contains a cell wall

Answer 1

The three pieces of information that belong to eukaryotes are:

1. **Contains true nucleus** - Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus that houses their genetic material.

2. **Has a mitochondrion organelle** - Eukaryotic cells typically contain mitochondria, which are involved in energy production.

3. **Example - Protist organisms** - Protists are a group of eukaryotic organisms that can be unicellular or multicellular.

The other statements do not apply to eukaryotes:

- **Does not contain membrane-bound organelles** is incorrect, as eukaryotes do contain membrane-bound organelles (e.g., endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus).
- **DNA is circular** is typically a characteristic of prokaryotes; eukaryotic DNA is linear and organized into chromosomes.
- **Always contains a cell wall** is also incorrect; while many eukaryotic cells, such as plant cells and fungi, have cell walls, animal cells do not have cell walls.
