Prokaryotic And Eukaryotic Cells- FLEX

Which best describes mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)? Mitochondrial DNA is the same as nuclear DNA. Mitochondrial DNA is inherited through the father. Mitochondrial DNA can be traced for generations. Mitochondrial DNA requires large amounts for testing.

The discovery of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) had no effect on which area of scientific investigation? endosymbiotic theory inheritance research forensic science study of cork bark

A diseased cell is no longer able to produce proteins. Which cell structure is most likely malfunctioning? nucleus cytoplasm ribosome mitochondrion

Based on the endosymbiotic theory, what cell would result from the endosymbiosis of a cell with a cyanobacterium? a eukaryotic cell that can make its own food a prokaryotic cell that can make its own food an aerobic bacterium an anaerobic bacterium

Which discovery supported the endosymbiotic theory? DNA in mitochondria DNA in the cell nucleus DNA in ribosomes DNA in the cytoplasm

A scientist is studying a cell and can clearly see that it has ribosomes and mitochondria. Which statement best describes how the cell could be classified? The cell is prokaryotic because it contains ribosomes. The cell is prokaryotic because it contains mitochondria. The cell is eukaryotic because it contains ribosomes. The cell is eukaryotic because it contains mitochondria.

A chemical has been found to harm the same components in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Which components are those? DNA, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes DNA, cell membrane, ribosomes, and membrane-bound organelles DNA, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and nucleus DNA, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and membrane-bound organelles

The endosymbiotic theory helps to explain the origin of which structures? mitochondria ribosomes nuclei cell membranes

How is mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) typing used in forensic science? An unknown mtDNA sample is matched to a sample of nuclear DNA that was found at a crime scene. An unknown mtDNA sample is matched to a sample of mtDNA that was found at a crime scene. An unknown nuclear DNA sample is matched to a sample of nuclear DNA that was found at a crime scene. An unknown nuclear DNA sample is matched to a sample of mtDNA that was found at a crime scene.

A scientist discovers a cell that has chloroplasts, cytoplasm, DNA, and a cell membrane. Which statement best describes how the cell could be classified? The cell is prokaryotic because it has DNA. The cell is prokaryotic because it has cytoplasm. The cell is eukaryotic because it has a cell membrane. The cell is eukaryotic because it has chloroplasts.

Which statement is most likely to apply to a cell that has DNA within its cytoplasm? It lacks ribosomes. It has membrane-bound organelles. It is multicellular. It performs all functions for the organism.

In which specimen were cells first identified? microorganism cork bark DNA mitochondrion

What is the basic unit of structure and function of all living organisms? mitochondrion DNA nucleus cell
