You isolate a cell with the following characteristics: (1) no nucleus, (2) a cell wall, and the cell is (3) 2 μm in size. This cell could be a/an:
A
Bacterium.
B
Plant cell.
C
Animal cell.
D
Bacterial cell or a plant cell.
E
Plant cell or an animal cell.
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the characteristics of the cell: no nucleus, a cell wall, and a size of 2 μm.
Recall that cells without a nucleus are classified as prokaryotic cells.
Understand that prokaryotic cells include bacteria and archaea, which typically have a cell wall.
Recognize that plant cells have a nucleus and are generally larger than 2 μm, and animal cells lack a cell wall.
Conclude that the cell is most likely a bacterium, as it fits the characteristics of being prokaryotic, having a cell wall, and being small in size.
