Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cells with a membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm, such as those found in animals and plants, are known as ____?
A
prokaryotes
B
eukaryotes
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae. Eukaryotes may be either single-celled or multicellular.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant and animal cells are eukaryotic, meaning that they have nuclei. Eukaryotic cells are found in plants, animals, fungi, and protists. They generally have a nucleus-an organelle surrounded by a membrane called the nuclear envelope-where DNA is stored.

Detailed explanation-3: -A cell consists of three parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus, and, between the two, the cytoplasm. Within the cytoplasm lie intricate arrangements of fine fibers and hundreds or even thousands of miniscule but distinct structures called organelles.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Both plant cells and animal cells contain mitochondria and cytoplasm. All cells in general contain cytoplasm, but only eukaryotes (plant and animal cells) will contain membrane bound organelles, which include mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-5: -A eukaryotic cell has a nuclear membrane. It has mitochondria, Golgi bodies, cell wall. It also contains locomotory organs such as cilia and flagella. The nucleus has a DNA that carries all the genetic information.
