When compared to eukaryotic cells, prokaryotic cells are:
less complex |
|
none of these |
|
similarly complex |
|
more complex |
Cells are classified into one of two groups based on whether or not they have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and therefore have a less complex structure than eukaryotic cells.
Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
acceleration |
|
velocity |
|
mass |
|
momentum |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
Examples of tertiary consumers include:
sharks |
|
chickens |
|
cows |
|
fish |
Tertiary consumers eat primary consumers and secondary consumers and are typically carnivorous predators. Tertiary consumers may also be omnivores. Examples include wolves, sharks, and human beings.
Plant cells may generate energy through which of the following?
aerobic respiration |
|
photosynthesis |
|
all of these |
|
anaerobic respiration |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
cell membrane |
|
cell wall |
|
cytoplasm |
|
nucleus |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
