What is the main difference between animal cells and prokaryotic cells?
What is the main difference between animal cells and prokaryotic cells?
- Animal cells lack a cytoskeleton, while prokaryotic cells have a well-defined cytoskeleton.
- Animal cells are enclosed by a cell wall, while prokaryotic cells lack cell walls.
- Animal cells have a distinct nucleus, while prokaryotic cells lack nuclei. (correct)
- Animal cells have nonmembranous molecular assemblies, while prokaryotic cells lack such structures.
What is the function of the cytoplasm in animal cells?
What is the function of the cytoplasm in animal cells?
- To synthesize proteins within the cell
- To house the genetic material of the cell
- To provide structural support to the cell
- To contain a system of membranous organelles (correct)
Why do prokaryotic cells differ in structure from animal cells?
Why do prokaryotic cells differ in structure from animal cells?
- The absence of nonmembranous molecular assemblies in prokaryotic cells
- Prokaryotic cells have a more complex cytoskeleton compared to animal cells
- Due to the presence of a cell wall in prokaryotic cells
- Because prokaryotic cells lack nuclei and membranous cytoplasmic structures (correct)
