the nucleus
a microtubule
the plasma membrane
a ribosome
In terms of
cellular
function
, what is the most important difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Eukaryotic cells can synthesize proteins but prokaryotic cells cannot.
Eukaryotic cells lack many of the organelles found in prokaryotes.
Eukaryotic cells are much more successful than prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotic cells have compartmentalized structures, which allows for specialization.
Bacterial cells are prokaryotic. Unlike a typical eukaryotic cell they __________.
lack chromosomes
lack a plasma membrane
have no ribosomes
have a smaller nucleus
lack membrane-bounded organelles in their cytoplasm
Which of the following organelles is primarily responsible for the production of ATP energy through cellular respiration?
mitochondria

rough endoplasmic reticulum
ribosome
Golgi apparatus
lysosome
Which organelle contains digestive enzymes and is involved in breaking down waste materials within the cell?
lysosome
ribosome
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
vacuole
The function of the ribosome is to:
transport substances
modify carbohydrates

cell wall
What is the primary function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
digesting cellular waste
detoxification and lipid synthesis
protein synthesis
energy production
The plasma membrane is primarily responsible for:
packaging proteins
regulating the movement of substances in and out of the cell
maintaining cell shape
