Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Animal cells are considered eukaryotic and bacteria cells prokaryotic. This is because-
A
animal cells grow at a much slower rate than bacteria cells.
B
the cell membrane on an animal cell is much more rigid.
C
animal cells require energy from outside food sources.
D
the genetic material of animal cells is stored in a nucleus.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Animal cells are considered eukaryotic and bacteria cells prokaryotic. This is because-animal cells grow at a much slower rate than bacteria cells. the cell membrane on an animal cell is much more rigid.

Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have structures in common. All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. The nucleus is where cells store their DNA, which is the genetic material.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most prokaryotes carry a small amount of genetic material in the form of a single molecule, or chromosome, of circular DNA. The DNA in prokaryotes is contained in a central area of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -In eukaryotes, the cell’s genetic material, or DNA, is contained within an organelle called the nucleus, where it is organized in long molecules called chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells both use deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) as the basis for their genetic information. This genetic material is needed to regulate and inform cell function through the creation of RNA by transcription, followed by the generation of proteins through translation.
