Question

Megan observes four cells under a microscope and makes sketches of them as shown. Identify whether the cells are prokaryotic or eukaryotic

Answer 1

I cannot found the images of the microscopy anywhere. But I can explain how you can differentiate a procaryote from a eucaryote under a microscope.

The first difference between them is the size of the cell. eucaryotes are generally much bigger than procaryotes. Procaryotes are visible only at x100 objective, but eucaryotes are visible starting from the x10 zoom.

The second difference is the presence of a nucleus in eukaryotes and the absence of it in procaryotes.

The third difference is the presence of organelles in eukaryotes and the presence of a cell wall in procaryotes (only visible at electronic microscopy).
