Answer:
Meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information.
Answer:
unicellular - both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
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.
Answer:
1. Nucleoid
2. Plasmid
Explanation:
Prokaryotes are groups of organisms characterized by the lack of a membrane-bound nucleus in their cell. Due to this, the genetic material (DNA) of prokaryotes are found naked i.e. not housed. The DNA of a prokaryote is arranged in a single coiled chromosome located in a region of the cell called NUCLEOID.
However, some prokaryotes e.g. bacteria carry genes on extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA called PLASMID. Plasmids carry certain genes like antibiotic resistance genes.
Answer:
A. Hydrogen bonds
Explanation:
A. Hydrogen bonds causes water molecules to stick together in liquid water.
Glucose is what the citric cycle uses to create energy for our cells in the form of ATP
