Explain why unicellular eukaryotes are neither plants nor animals.
Identify the characteristics if it is prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells.
1. It contains organelles that are membrane bounded
2. No histones
3. It produce through binary fission
4. These are usually in the cytoplasm
5. They are usually microscopic and unicellular organism
6. They usually possess structures called pili
7. Cytoskeleton is absent
8. They are lack of nucleus
9. They secretes a layer of polysaccharide around the cell
10. Their genes are found in the nucleoid
Name 4 structures unique to prokaryotic cells. Give the function/adaptation of each.
