5 0

As it turns out, whether or not we can see the moon during the day depends on the brightness of its light—which is really just the sun's light reflecting off of the moon's surface—and the earth's rotation. In order for the moon to be visible in the sky, it needs to be above the horizon.

contain mitochondrion - eukaryotes only

are generally less than 2 pm - Prokaryotes only

multicellular - eukaryotes only

lack membrane-bound organelles - prokaryotes only

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are generally unicellular, that is, they are made up of single cells only. However, there are unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes with some eukaryotes like humans and advanced plants having as many as millions of cells.

Prokaryotes generally lack nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as chloroplast and mitochondrion. Eukaryotes on the other hand have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondrion and chloroplast.

When it comes to size, prokaryotes are generally small and microscopic while eukaryotes consist of both microscopic and macroscopic cells or organisms. However, prokaryotes are generally smaller than microscopic eukaryotes.

The cavity of right ventricle is larger I believe. This is due for the fact that the left ventricle is thicker in muscle so may have a smaller cavity. I’ve also performed dissections lol.
