Select whether the structure/description applies to prokaryotic cells only, eukaryotic cells only, or both types of cells.(3 points)

Question

Prokaryotic Cells only Both Types of Cells Eukaryotic Cells only
Membrane bound organelles (like mitochondria)


Ribosomes


No Nucleus


Nucleus


NO membrane bound organelles (like mitochondria)


Genetic material

Answer 1

Here’s where each structure/description applies:

| Description/Structure | Prokaryotic Cells only | Both Types of Cells | Eukaryotic Cells only | |-------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------|---------------------|-----------------------| | Membrane bound organelles (like mitochondria) | | | ✔ | | Ribosomes | | ✔ | | | No Nucleus | ✔ | | | | Nucleus | | | ✔ | | NO membrane bound organelles (like mitochondria) | ✔ | | | | Genetic material | | ✔ | |

So, to summarize:

• Membrane bound organelles apply to eukaryotic cells only.
• Ribosomes apply to both types of cells.
• No nucleus applies to prokaryotic cells only.
• Nucleus applies to eukaryotic cells only.
• No membrane bound organelles apply to prokaryotic cells only.
• Genetic material applies to both types of cells.
