Question
what makes eukaryotic cells more complex than prokaryotic cells? their lack of any organelles having lots of cytoplasm presence of a true nucleus
Brief Explanations
To determine what makes eukaryotic cells more complex than prokaryotic cells, we analyze each option:
- "their lack of any organelles": Prokaryotic cells have fewer organelles, while eukaryotic cells have membrane - bound organelles. So this option is incorrect.
- "having lots of cytoplasm": The amount of cytoplasm is not the key factor that makes eukaryotic cells more complex. Prokaryotic cells also have cytoplasm. So this option is incorrect.
- "presence of a true nucleus": Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus (with a nuclear membrane enclosing the genetic material), while prokaryotic cells have a nucleoid (genetic material not enclosed in a membrane). The presence of a true nucleus and other membrane - bound organelles allows for more complex cellular organization and functions in eukaryotic cells.
