Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells — Quiz

Question 10 • Biology

A chemical has been found to harm the same components in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Which components are those?

Answer
A
DNA, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes
B
DNA, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and nucleus
C
DNA, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and membrane-bound organelles
D
DNA, cell membrane, ribosomes, and membrane-bound organelles

Explanation

Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have DNA, a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes, so a chemical could harm those components in both cell types. Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus, which rules out choices that include them.
