Lesson Worksheet: Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells Biology

In this worksheet, we will practice recalling the main subcellular structures of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells and relate these structures to their functions.

Q1:

Which of the following correctly defines a prokaryotic cell?

  • AA cell that has no mitochondria
  • BA cell that cannot reproduce on its own
  • CA cell that does not have a membrane
  • DA cell that does not have a membrane-bound nucleus
  • EA cell that can move on its own

Q2:

Which part of a plant cell is responsible for maintaining cell structure?

  • ACell wall
  • BCytoplasm
  • CMitochondria
  • DChloroplast
  • ECell membrane

Q3:

Which of the following is the correct function of the cell membrane?

  • AStoring the genetic material
  • BMaintaining cell rigidity

  • DProviding energy for cellular processes
  • EProviding the site for protein synthesis

Q4:

Which of the following is the correct function of ribosomes?

  • AProviding energy for cellular processes
  • BMaintaining cell structure and shape
  • CStoring the genetic material
