Question

17 true or false 1 point
prokaryotic cells tend to be significantly larger than eukaryotic cells.
true
false
18 true or false 1 point
water moves via osmosis from an area with a lower solute concentration to an area with a higher solute concentration.
true
false

Explanation:

1. For question 17: Eukaryotic cells (like those in plants, animals) are structurally more complex and generally much larger in size than prokaryotic cells (bacteria, archaea), which are small and simple.
2. For question 18: Osmosis is defined as the passive movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration (higher water potential) to a region of higher solute concentration (lower water potential).

Answer:

1. False
2. True
