Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand the basic difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells: Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.
Identify the structures listed in the options: Nucleus, Plasma membrane, Ribosomes, and Cell wall.
Recognize that the nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's genetic material, which is present in eukaryotic cells but absent in prokaryotic cells.
Note that both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have a plasma membrane and ribosomes, as these are essential for cell function and protein synthesis.
Understand that a cell wall is present in many prokaryotic cells and some eukaryotic cells (like plant cells), but it is not a distinguishing feature between the two types of cells.
