Which choice has eukaryotic animal cells? 1- oak 2- liver 3- virus 4- Lactobacillus
ipn [44]

Answer:

Liver

Explanation:

Eukaryotes are organisms that are made up of cells that have a membrane-bound nucleus. They are commonly described as cells with a "TRUE" nucleus. Animals and plants are eukaryotes.

Since it says "Animal" we can cross out oak, because this is a plant. Viruses are not cells, they are not considered living organisms as well. Lactobacillus is a type of bacteria and bacteria is classified as prokaryotic.

Prokaryotes are different from eukaryotes because they lack that membrane-bound nucleus.
