A. prokaryotic cells
B. eukaryotic cells
C. animal cells
D. multicellular cells
Answer: Prokaryotic cells lack a true membrane-bound nucleus; their genetic material lies freely in the cytoplasm.
A. ecology
B. histology
C. genetics
D. cytology
Answer: Cytology is the branch of biology that deals with cells, while histology deals with tissues.
A. ribosome
B. mitochondrion
C. lysosome
D. vacuole
Answer: Mitochondria release energy from glucose and store it in ATP, so they are called the powerhouse of the cell.
A. ribosomes
B. lysosomes
C. centrioles
D. vacuoles
Answer: Ribosomes are small granules composed of RNA and proteins and are the site of protein synthesis.
A. lysosomes
B. vacuoles
C. ribosomes
D. centrioles
Answer: Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
A. eukaryotic organisms
B. multicellular organisms
C. virus-like organisms
D. prokaryotic organisms
Answer: Bacteria lack a membrane-bound nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, so they are prokaryotes.
A. They contain a well-defined nucleus
B. They lack membrane-bound organelles
C. They contain mitochondria
D. They have 80S ribosomes
Answer: Prokaryotic cells have no membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, ER, or Golgi apparatus.
A. nucleoid
B. nucleolus
C. nucleus
D. nuclear envelope
Answer: The nucleoid is an irregular region in the cytoplasm where the prokaryotic chromosome is located.
A. 80S
B. 90S
C. 70S
D. 60S
Answer: Prokaryotes have 70S ribosomes, whereas eukaryotic cells contain larger 80S ribosomes.
A. linear
B. V-shaped
C. rod-like
D. circular
Answer: Prokaryotes generally carry a single, circular DNA molecule in the nucleoid.
A. Protista
B. Monera
C. Fungi
D. Plantae
Answer: All prokaryotes (archaebacteria and eubacteria) belong to kingdom Monera.
A. mitosis
B. meiosis
C. binary fission
D. budding only
Answer: Binary fission is the common asexual method of reproduction in prokaryotes.
A. peptidoglycan
B. cellulose
C. chitin
D. lignin
Answer: Bacterial cell walls contain peptidoglycan (murein), unlike plant cell walls made of cellulose.
A. Escherichia coli
B. Streptococcus
C. Cyanobacterium
D. Amoeba
Answer: Amoeba is a protozoan with a true nucleus, so it is eukaryotic; the others are prokaryotes.
A. Amoeba
B. Escherichia coli
C. Paramecium
D. Yeast
Answer: E. coli is a bacterium, which is a prokaryote; the other options are eukaryotes.
A. nucleoid without a membrane
B. peptidoglycan cell wall
C. well-defined nucleus bounded by a nuclear membrane
D. single circular chromosome
Answer: Eukaryotes have a true nucleus enclosed in a nuclear envelope, along with membrane-bound organelles.
A. Cell wall
B. Plasma membrane
C. Nucleus
D. Ribosome
Answer: Plant cells have a cellulose cell wall, which animal cells do not possess.
A. Mitochondrion
B. Ribosome
C. Golgi apparatus
D. Chloroplast
Answer: Chloroplasts are the green plastids of plant cells used for photosynthesis; animal cells lack them.
A. nucleus
B. central vacuole
C. mitochondrion
D. ribosome
Answer: The large central vacuole holds water and maintains turgor pressure, keeping plant cells firm.
A. cellulose
B. chitin
C. starch
D. peptidoglycan
Answer: Plants store glucose as starch, whereas animals store it as glycogen.
