What is the main difference between a eukaryotic cell and a prokaryotic cell?
A
Prokaryotic cells have a cell wall, while eukaryotic cells do not.
B
Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.
C
Eukaryotic cells are always unicellular, while prokaryotic cells are multicellular.
D
Prokaryotic cells have mitochondria, while eukaryotic cells do not.
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the key structural differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.
Understand that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, which are absent in prokaryotic cells.
Recognize that prokaryotic cells are generally smaller and simpler in structure compared to the larger and more complex eukaryotic cells.
Note that prokaryotic cells typically have a cell wall, but not all eukaryotic cells have a cell wall. For example, animal cells do not have a cell wall, while plant cells do.
Clarify that eukaryotic cells can be either unicellular or multicellular, whereas prokaryotic cells are usually unicellular.
