Wrong Again. For each of the following false statements, change the statement to make it true.
(a) Archaea are ancient bacteria that are the ancestors of modern bacteria.
(b) Bacteria differ from eukaryotes in having no nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, or ribosomes.
(c) Instead of a cell wall, eukaryotic cells have an extracellular matrix for structural support.
(d) All the ribosomes found in a typical human muscle cell are identical.
(e) DNA is found only in the nucleus of a cell.
(f) Because bacterial cells have no organelles, they cannot carry out either ATP synthesis or photosynthesis.
(g) Even the simplest types of infectious agents must have DNA, RNA, and protein.

- Protein synthesis occurs in all living cells. Why, then, are some antimicrobial drugs that target protein synthesis selectively toxic to bacteria? The protein synthesis in human cells will only occur inside the nucleus. The ribosomes found in human cells and those found in bacterial cells have different structures. Protein synthesis in bacteria is completed by ribosomes, while protein synthesis in humans is completed by polymerase enzymes. The protein synthesis in human cells occurs less frequently than that in bacterial cells.arrow_forwardQuestion:- MATCH EACH WITH THE LETTER. 1. RIBOSOME 2. NUCLEUS 3.

Match each description to the correct structure. Spliceosomes produces mature mRNA Ribosomes Why might spliceosomes and ribosomes be so similar? Answer Bank composed of RNA and protein components has catalytic RNA Both catalyzes peptide bond formation Spliceosomes and ribosomes perform the same catalytic reaction. Both spliceosomes and ribosomes bind to RNA molecules at the same sequences. The catalytic RNAs of both are thought to have originated when RNA molecules served to store information and catalyze reactions. These structures were both obtained by eukaryotes through the process of horizontal gene transfer.arrow_forward
