Question

students use a microscope to look for structures present in four different cells. the students placed an x for each structure that was viewed for each cell on the table shown. which cell that was viewed is most likely a prokaryote?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Prokaryotes lack a nucleus. Cell Y has no nucleus marked as present while having other common cell - structures like cell membrane, cell wall, DNA. Prokaryotes can have cell walls, cell membranes, and DNA. The presence of chloroplasts is not a characteristic of prokaryotes, and Cell W has chloroplasts so it's less likely to be prokaryotic. Cells X and Z have a nucleus, which prokaryotes don't have.

Answer:

Cell Y
