Question 15 of 25

2 Points
Which observation provides evidence that a cell is most likely
a eukaryote?
O A. It lacks a vacuole that stores water,
O B. It lacks a Golgi apparatus for vesicle production,
O C. Ribosomes assemble proteins inside the cell.
O D. The organelles are enclosed in membranes.

Answer 1

D. The organelles are enclosed in membranes

Step-by-step explanation:

One defining characteristic of eukaryotes is that they have membrane-bound organelles. If a cell lacks a water-storing vacuole, that could mean it is a prokaryote too. If a cell lacks a Golgi apparatus, it can never be a eukaryote. RIbosomes are characteristics of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. D. is the best evidence that the cell is a eukaryote.
