Q

How is a prokaryote different from a eukaryote?

A

Prokaryote - NO nucleus! Only found in bacteria! NO membrane bound organelles! OLDER. SMALLER.

Eukaryote - HAS a nucleus, has membrane bound organelles! BIGGER. Found in more complex organisms (ex. humans)

Q

Magnify the image on a microscope

A

Objectives (4x, 10x, 40x)

Eye piece (10x)

Objective x Eyepiece = magnification

(ex. 4x objective x 10x eyepiece = 40 magnification)
