What is the function of vacuoles in plant cells?
Vacuoles
store
water,
nutrients,
and

proteins.
What distinguishes prokaryotic cells from eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells
lack
a
true
nucleus

eukaryotic
cells
have
both.
What are the key components of a cell?
The key components of a cell include the cell
membrane,
cytoplasm,
genetic
material
, and
ribosomes.
What is the function of the cell membrane?
The cell membrane acts as a
selective
