Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Jorge looks through a microscope and observes the structures of cells on a microscope slide. He concludes that the cells he observes are eukaryotic cells. Which of the following structures did Jorge most likely observe before making his conclusion?
A
nucleus
B
cytoplasm
C
cell membrane
D
genetic material
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Jorge looks through a microscope and observes the structures of cells on a microscope slide. He concludes that the cells he observes are eukaryotic cells. Which of these structures did Jorge most likely observe before making his conclusion? cells must perform many of the same types of functions as body systems do.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two types of electron microscopy-transmission and scanning-are widely used to study cells. In principle, transmission electron microscopy is similar to the observation of stained cells with the bright-field light microscope.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles (such as the nucleus and mitochondria), while prokaryotic cells do not. DNA in eukaryotic cells is found inside the nucleus, while DNA in prokaryotic cells is located in the cytoplasm. Eukaryotic cells are generally larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, When an onion peel cell is observed under a compound microscope, the part that can be seen is Nucleus.
