Question

cell structure practice (use your digital textbook or a copy of the old textbook to answer the questions below.) prokaryotic cell structure 1. what does pro - mean? 2. what does -karyote mean? 3. so, what kind of cell is a prokaryotic cell? a. (outermost structure) b. (tiny structure that synthesizes proteins) c. d. e. (watery fluid inside the cell) f. (adjacent to the cell wall) g. eukaryotic cell structure label and color both diagrams! 1. what does eu - mean? 2. what does -karyote mean? 3. so, what kind of cell is a eukaryotic cell? plant cell

Explanation:

1. In biology, "pro -" often means before. In the context of prokaryotes, it refers to cells that evolved before eukaryotic cells and lack a true nucleus.
2. "-karyote" means nucleus. Prokaryotes lack a membrane - bound nucleus.
3. A prokaryotic cell is a cell without a membrane - bound nucleus. The outermost structure is the cell wall (A), the tiny protein - synthesizing structure is the ribosome (B), the other parts are related to cell structure and function such as the cell membrane (F adjacent to cell wall), cytoplasm (E, the watery fluid inside the cell). For eukaryotes, "eu -" means true, and with "-karyote" (nucleus), a eukaryotic cell has a true, membrane - bound nucleus.

Answer:

Prokaryotic Cell Structure

1. Before
2. Nucleus
3. A cell without a membrane - bound nucleus

A. Cell wall
B. Ribosome
C. Not specified in given info
D. Not specified in given info
E. Cytoplasm
F. Cell membrane
G. Not specified in given info

Eukaryotic Cell Structure

1. True
2. Nucleus
3. A cell with a membrane - bound nucleus

A - H, L: Need to label based on actual cell organelles (e.g., A could be chloroplast, B could be mitochondria etc. but exact labels depend on the diagram details)
