what are the four main characteristics of a eukaryotic cell?

['a membrane-bound nucleus.', 'numerous membrane-bound organelles (including the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria)', 'several rod-shaped chromosomes.']

Explanation: Animal and plant cells are eukaryotic because they have membrane bound organelles like nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosomes and vacuoles. Prokaryotic cells do not have these membrane bound organelles and are smaller than eukaryoric cells.

There are four types of eukaryotes: animals, plants, fungi, and protists. Protists are a group of organisms defined as being eukaryotic but not animals, plants, or fungi; this group includes protozoa, slime molds, and some algae. Protists and fungi are usually unicellular, while animals and plants are multicellular.

Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds DNA in the form of chromosomes) as well as membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic organisms may be multicellular or single-celled organisms. All animals are eukaryotes. Other eukaryotes include plants, fungi, and protists.

Like a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes.

The cells of all prokaryotes and eukaryotes possess two basic features: a plasma membrane, also called a cell membrane, and cytoplasm. However, the cells of prokaryotes are simpler than those of eukaryotes. For example, prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus.

The three main parts of an eukaryotic cell include: an outer boundary (plasma membrane), an interior substance (cytoplasm), and a control region (nucleus).

Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells and have a “true” nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and rod-shaped chromosomes. The nucleus houses the cell's DNA and directs the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes.

['Multicellular organisms are made of more than one cell. ... ', 'They are visible to the naked eye.', 'They possess distinct organs and organ systems.', 'They are eukaryotes, i.e., they contain membrane-bound structures.', 'Their cells exhibit division of labour.']

Paramecia are eukaryotes. In contrast to prokaryotic organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, eukaryotes have well-organized cells. The defining features of eukaryotic cells are the presence of specialized membrane-bound cellular machinery called organelles and the nucleus, which is a compartment that holds DNA.

However, unlike prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells have: a membrane-bound nucleus. numerous membrane-bound organelles (including the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria) several rod-shaped chromosomes.

['The cell is the smallest entity that still retains the characteristics of life.', 'All cells have three basic parts: ... ', 'Eukaryotic cells are defined by their possession of a membrane-bound nucleus.', 'Prokaryotic cells have no defined nucleus; the only representatives are bacteria.']

No matter which type of cell we are considering, all cells have certain features in common, such as a cell membrane, DNA and RNA, cytoplasm, and ribosomes. Eukaryotic cells have a great variety of organelles and structures.

Eukaryotic Cell Definition. Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus and organelles, and are enclosed by a plasma membrane. Organisms that have eukaryotic cells include protozoa, fungi, plants and animals. These organisms are grouped into the biological domain Eukaryota.
