In a eukaryotic cell specialized for secretion of hormones which internal organelles would you expect to be particularly abundant?
Mitochondria are numerous in eukaryotic cells.
Is Dinoflagella eukaryotic or prokaryotic?
Dinoflagella is a member of Protista and therefore Eukaryotic. An example of this would be Pfiesteria.
What would happen if the cell did not have eukaryotic?
the cell would die
In which type of cell would you expect to find a membrane-enclosed nucleus?
All eukaryotic cells have a membrane-enclosed nucleus. Only bacteria and archaea lack a nucleus and their DNA is simply diffused throughout the cell.
Which structure found in a cell would provide the best evidence that the cell is eukaryotic?
the nucleus, prokaryotes lack a nucleus therefore if a cell had a nucleus it would be eukaryotic cell.

Mitochondria are numerous in eukaryotic cells.
What eukaryotic organelles would you expect to see in something that's alive?
Eukaryotic organelles would include:nucleolusmitochondriachloroplast(only photosynthetic organisms)endoplasmic reticulumgolgi complexvacoules
What does the telomerase enzyme do?
Telomerase maintains the telomeres of chromosomes in order to prevent cell death. This enzyme added sequences onto the ends of the chromosomes, thereby preventing extreme shortening and loss of genetic material. In a way, telomerase would give cells immortal life, by continuously regenerating its ends. However, telomerase are usually inactive in the human body because normal cells do not divide frequently, and therefore, the chromosomes do not shorten.
Which organelle would you expect only in autotrophic organisms?
There are a few organelles that would only be found within a cell that is eukaryotic and autotrophic. They are chloroplasts and a central vacuole.
What cell organelles would you expect to find in abundance inside an eukaryotic cell that needs to produce a large amount of ATP?
You would expect to find a large number of mitochondria in an eukaryotic cell that needs to produce a large amount of ATP. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell and are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration. They are abundant in cells with high energy demands, such as muscle cells.
Explain how the knowledge of telomerase may lead to an effective treatment for cancer?
It is believed that extreme shortening of chromosomes due to genetic abnormalities may actually trigger cancer. Such frequent shortening of the telomeres may actually cause the telomerase enzyme to activate. This may sound like something good for the cell, but in reality, the telomerase can aid in preserving cancerous cells, giving them infinite life so that they may divide and proliferate.
Is Dinoflagella eukaryotic or prokaryotic?
Dinoflagella is a member of Protista and therefore Eukaryotic. An example of this would be Pfiesteria.
What arrangement of flagella would you expect to be associated with highly motile species?
Highly mitile species have eukaryotic flagella. These include cellular projection that will move to and fro. They can be found in either plant or animal cells.
What would the y in eukaryotic mean?
The letter "y" in eukaryotic is part of the Greek word "karyon" which means "kernel." The kernel refers to the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
What would happen if the cell did not have eukaryotic?
the cell would die
In which type of cell would you expect to find a membrane-enclosed nucleus?
All eukaryotic cells have a membrane-enclosed nucleus. Only bacteria and archaea lack a nucleus and their DNA is simply diffused throughout the cell.
What is the body lacking if a person eats toilet paper?
The body would most likely be lacking in a brain.
