easy · Enhanced ACT science

A scientist observes a single-celled organism under a microscope. She notes the presence of a cell wall and ribosomes, but a complete absence of a nucleus or mitochondria.

How should this organism be classified?

  1. An animal cell, which typically features a cell wall and lacks a nucleus to allow for more mobility.
  2. A eukaryote, as the presence of a cell wall and ribosomes indicates a complex internal structure.
  3. A virus, which utilizes a cell wall for protection but does not require a nucleus for reproduction.
  4. A prokaryote, such as a bacterium, which lacks membrane-bound organelles like a nucleus.
