Carrie observes an electron micrograph of a cell during biology lab. The cell has a flagellum, ribosomes, cell wall, and no apparent nucleus. Which of the following is likely true of the cell that Carrie is observing?

• The cell also contains mitochondria.

• The presence of the organelles proves that the cell is eukaryotic.

• The cell is a plant because of the cell wall.

• The cell is prokaryotic.

Which of the following best describes the function of smooth endoplasmic reticulum?

• Modifies carbohydrates and proteins, placing them into vesicles

• Manufactures proteins and nucleic acids using the DNA code

• Modifies and transports proteins after the ribosome makes them

• Manufactures lipids and then transports them to a new location
