A researcher collects two specimens from a sample of pond water and takes them back to the lab, where they are prepared and placed under a microscope, as shown. Which types of organisms are A and B? Select TWO that apply.

• Organism A is a eukaryote because its genetic material is enclosed in a nucleus.

• Organism B is a prokaryote because its DNA is not surrounded by a membrane.

• Organism A is a prokaryote because it has a chloroplast for converting energy.

• Organism B is a eukaryote because it has a cell membrane and a cell wall.
