Is the animalia kingdom prokaryotic or eukaryotic?

The Animalia kingdom is eukaryotic. Eukaryotic organisms have cells that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic organisms do not have a nucleus or organelles.


Do people have prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?

The cells found in the human body are eukaryotic cells. Organisms that have eukaryotic cells are usually multicellular like humans. Organisms that have prokaryotic cells are usually unicelluar, like bacteria.


What are examples of organisms that contain both prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?

Endosymbiotic organisms, such as certain algae or fungi, can contain both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. For example, lichens consist of a fungus and photosynthetic algae or cyanobacteria living in a symbiotic relationship, where the prokaryotic cells (such as cyanobacteria) are engulfed by eukaryotic cells (fungus) leading to a combination of both cell types within the organism.


Is it true or false that prokaryotic cells contain more DNA than eukaryotic cells?

False. Eukaryotic cells generally contain more DNA than prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have their DNA enclosed within a nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells have their DNA located in the cytoplasm.


Which best describes a difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?

Eukaryotic cells contain organelles that are enclosed in membranes


Is the leopard eukaryotic or prokaryotic?

The leopard is eukaryotic. Eukaryotic organisms, such as animals, plants, and fungi, have cells that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic organisms, like bacteria, lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Leopards, being multicellular animals, have eukaryotic cells with a complex internal structure.


Do plants prokaryotic cells?

No, plants contain eukaryotic cells.


Are taste bud cells eukaryotic or prokaryotic?

Taste bud cells are eukaryotic cells. They are complex cells that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.


Can both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms can have one or more cells?

Yes, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms can have one or more cells. Prokaryotic organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular, while eukaryotic organisms, like humans and plants, can be unicellular or multicellular. The number of cells in an organism is determined by its cellular structure and complexity.


What type of cell is nucleus found in?

A eukaryotic cell is one of two different types of cells. Organisms that are based on the eukaryotic cell are called “eukaryotes” and include plants, animals, fungi, and protists. The only organisms that are not based on the eukaryotic cell are organisms based on a prokaryotic cell structure. It is the only cell that contain a nucleus.


What is a defining feature of a prokaryotic cell?

Prokaryotic cells, unlike eukaryotic cells, do NOT contain a nucleus.
