Students created note cards comparing characteristics of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
Which one have the correct characteristics for both?
The table below indicates which structures are present in two cells. The X indicates structures that are present in each cell, so it will have an X if that cell HAS that structure.
Identify the cells below based on their structures.

Which of the following best explains why avian influenza affects birds but not humans?
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the body's immune system, making it harder for the body to fight off infections and illnesses. Many people do not have symptoms in the first months of infection. As of August 2024, there are 40 million people living with HIV. One of the most common ways to contract HIV is through coming into contact with body fluids.
Which of the following best explains why someone cannot get HIV if they shake hands with someone with the infection?
Which of the following correctly compares and contrasts prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Select TWO correct answers.
A student creates a diagram of the formation of present-day eukaryotic cells. The diagram is shown.
What is shown in the diagram?
