what is the structural difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that is directly related to size

Biology

Alex17521 [72]3 years ago
6 0
Eukaryotic cells are considerably larger than prokaryotic cells because eukaryotic cells have many organelles (mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes...) which prokaryotic cells do not. This difference is due to the fact that prokaryotic cells are primitive; eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells also have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not, which contributes to the size difference.

Hope this helps.

Winds in our atmosphere are created as a result of which of the following processes?
shusha [124]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) Uneven heating of the air in the atmosphere</em>

Explanation:

Wind can simply be described as air which is moving or which is in motion. The uneven heating of the Earth's surface caused by the sun is the reason why winds occur. The difference in pressure of one area to another area causes the air to move and cause wind. The air tends to move from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure and such is the movement of the wind.
