Diversity of Life - Chapter 1, Lesson 3

What are the characteristics of prokaryotes?

• Prokaryotes are only found in plants.

• Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus

• Prokaryotes have a nucleus nucleus

• Prokaryotes are multicellular organisms.

What are the characteristics of eukaryotes?

• Eukaryotes are always unicellular

• Eukaryotes are always heterotrophs

• Eukaryotes cells have a nucleus.

• Eukaryotes cells do not have a nucleus.

Which of these is not one of the three domains of living things?

• Bacteria

• Archaea

• Eukarya

What do bacteria and archaea have in common?

• They are both unicellular

• They are both multicellular

• They are always autotrophs

• They are always heterotrophs

Which of these is not one of the 4 Eukarya kingdoms?

• Animals

What is a key difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

• Eukaryotes have cells and prokaryotes don't.

• Prokaryotes are heterotrophs and eukaryotes are autotrophs.

• Prokaryotes are autotrophs and eukaryotes are heterotrophs.

• Eukaryotes' cells have nuclei.
