Students have asked these similar questions
Both Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes have all of the
following except
O Cytoskeleton
O Ribosomes
Organelles
O DNA
This organelle is now thought to have been a prokaryote that gave up genes in order to live inside a
eukaryotic cell.
O golgi apparatus
O nucleus
mitochondrian
rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
The mitochondria and chloroplast have small their own circular
chromosomes, which is part of the evidence suggesting these organelles
may have long ago been free-living prokaryotes that were brought into the
cell in vesicles but not digested.
True
False

The evolution/development of the skeletal system found in the Deuterostomes, is made up of two molecules, Ca+2PO4-2 and collagen These molecules are produced released from by a specialized type of stem cell.
