Which of the following is a characteristic of eukaryotes but not of prokaryotes?

a. none of the provided answers.
b. the genetic material is surrounded by its own phospholipid bilayer, distinct from the phospholipid bilayer that surrounds the cell.
c. organisms can be single celled.
d. dna serves as the genetic material.
e. the cell is surrounded by a plasma membrane that is a phospholipid bilayer

b. The genetic material is surrounded by its own phospholipid bilayer, distinct from the phospholipid bilayer that surrounds the cell.

Explanation:

In eukaryotes genetic material is DNA and it is located in the well defined nucleus. The nucleus in eukaryotes is definite nucleus which is surrounded by by a unit membrane called nuclear membrane which is made of phospholipid bilayer. Whereas, in prokaryotes incipient nucleus is present which is not surrounded by nuclear membrane. Thus, option b. is correct.

d.

explanation:

answer: after carbon dioxide enters the leaf through stomata it moves into the mesophyll cells where photosynthesis occurs and glucose is constructed. respiration occurs when glucose (sugar produced during photosynthesis) combines with oxygen to produce useable cellular energy.
