- Biology v Q35 How does the cell of a bacteria differ from an animal cell? Eukaryotic cells (animal cells) have a well- organized nucleus with a nuclear membrane. Bacterial cells lack cell organelles. | Bacterial cells do not have well-defined nuclei. Bacterial cells contain endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi bodies and lysosomes. Both (a) and (b)arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not correct?(a) Robert Brown discovered the cell.(b) Schleiden and Schwann formulated the cell theory.(c) Virchow explained that cells are formed from pre-existing cells.(d) A unicellular organism carries out its life activities within a single cell.arrow_forwardCU: Structure and Function In the 1800s two scientists, Theodor Schwann and Matthias Schleiden, studied different types of organisms. After many years of studying a great variety of organisms, they drew similar but independent conclusions about their observations. Schwann studied animals and concluded that all animals are made of cells. Schleiden studied plants and concluded that all plants are made of cells. What statement was developed most directly from these conclusions and is part of the modern cell theory? Cells contain hereditary information. O Cells exist only in multicellular organisms. The functions of living things occur in cells. Living things are composed of cells. 1 2 3 4 5 6 DELL 441arrow_forward

Which cells having internal membranes? the following best summarizes an advantage of eukaryotic (A) Eukaryotic cells are able to reproduce faster because of the presence of organelles. (B) Some organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, are similar to prokaryotic cells in structure. (C) Organelles isolate specific reactions, increasing metabolic efficiency. (D) Compartmentalization leads to a higher mutation rate in DNA, which leads to more new species.arrow_forwardAnswer the Guide Question: a) Each cell in an organism has all of the basic parts. Each has a function that benefits the other cells, how might the presence of different cell structures in plant and animal help them perform their functions as an organism.
