Which of the following is present in a prokaryotic cell?a. mitochondrionb. ribosomec. nuclear enveloped. chloroplast

Which of the following clues would tell you whether a cell is prokaryotic or eukaryotic?a. the presence or absence of a rigid cell wallb. whether or not the cell is partitioned by internal membranesc. the presence or absence of ribosomesd. Both b and c are important clues.

Which of the following cell structures would you expect to be most important in the growth of bacteria on the surface of your teeth?a. cell wallb. fimbriaec. flagellad. cilia

What four cellular components are shared by prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

In what ways do the internal membranes of a eukaryotic cell contribute to the functioning of the cell?

Is this statement true or false? 'Animal cells have mitochondria; plant cells have chloroplasts.' Explain your answer, and describe the functions of these organelles.

Describe the structure of the plasma membrane of an animal cell. What would be found directly inside and outside the membrane?

Imagine a spherical cell with a radius of 10 μm. What is the cell's surface area in μm2? Its volume, in μm3? (Note: For a sphere of radius r, surface area = 4πr2 and volume = 4/3πr3. Remember that the value of π is 3.14.) What is the ratio of surface area to volume for this cell? Now do the same calculations for a second cell, this one with a radius of 20 μm. Compare the surface-to-volume ratios of the two cells. How is this comparison significant to the functioning of cells?
