Answer:

The correct options are the need to take in oxygen for cellular respiration and the ability to transmit genetic information to an offspring.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes use oxygen to carry out aerobic respiration.The major byproduct of aerobic respiration in case of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes is Carbon dioxide(CO2).

Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have the ability to transmit information to their off springs.Most Eukaryotes carry out the same by sexual reproduction and prokaryotes exhibit the same by binary fission.
