What is a cell if it contains a nucleus?

A Eukaryotic Cell MUST contain a nucleus. A Prokaryotic Cell MUST NOT have a nucleus. A non-cell would be a virus.


If a cell contains a nucleus it must be a prokaryote.?

No, it is eukariotic.


If a cell contains a nucleus it must be a prokaryote?

This statement is incorrect. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus. They have their genetic material located in the cytoplasm in a region called the nucleoid. Cells with a nucleus are eukaryotic.


What must a chloroplast be exposed to for photosynthesis to occur?

the sun.


Which organelles must be present within a cell of a geranium leaf for respiration and photosynthesis?

For respiration, the mitochondria are essential as they are responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP. For photosynthesis, chloroplasts are required as they contain chlorophyll which captures sunlight to drive the process of producing glucose. Both processes are crucial for plant cells to produce energy and sustain life.


What process MUST happen in the parent cell before it divides?

The parent cell must undergo DNA replication to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic information during cell division. This process ensures that each daughter cell contains the same genetic material as the parent cell.


What is the material in the leaf that must be present for photosynthesis to occur?

The material is Chlorophyll and it comes from a green part of a plant cell called the chloroplast.


Is chloroplasts living material?

Yes. Considering it doesn't die in a plant cell, it is.__By definition, chloroplasts aren't alive. To be alive, the 'thing' must carry out all life processes. A cell is the smallest thing that can carry out said life process. Being that a chloroplast is part of the cell, it is not technically alive.TL;DR No, it's not alive


If a cell contains a nucleus it must be?

The nucleus of the cell contains much of the DNA of the cell, and it regulates the activities of that cell, whatever those activities are.


What is unigue about the euglena?

the euglena is unigue in that is both heterotrophic(must consume food) and autotrophic(can make its own food). -chloroplast within the euglena trap sunlight that is used for photosynthesis, and can be seen as several rod like structures throughout the cell.


What must a bacterial cell have in order to transfer portions of its chromosome to another cell?

A bacterial cell must have a conjugative plasmid, which contains genes for the transfer of DNA, in order to transfer portions of its chromosome to another cell. Conjugative plasmids encode transfer functions that enable the formation of a conjugation bridge between donor and recipient cells, allowing the exchange of genetic material.
