20. Which of the following statements about binary fission is false? a. In both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, the outcome of cell reproduction is a pair of daughter
cells, which are genetically identical to the parent cell.
b. Karyokinesis is unnecessary in prokaryotes because there is no nucleus.
c. Replication of the prokaryotic chromosome begins at the origin of replication and continues in
both directions at once.
d. The mitotic spindle draws the duplicated chromosomes to the opposite ends of the cell followed
by formation of a septum and two daughter cells.

D. The mitotic spindle draws the duplicated chromosomes to the opposite ends of the cell followed by the formation of a septum and two daughter cells.

Explanation:

I took the quiz I got a 100%

im gonna compare the cells to jobs in factory. give brainliest

job in the factory //       cell organelle   //  

shipping/receiving

department                 plasma membrane    

chief executive officer// nucleus

factory floor // cytoplasm

assembly line// endoplasmic reticulum

workers in the assembly line //ribosomes

finishing/packaging department //golgi apparatus

maintenance crew //lysosomes

support beams (walls, ceilings, floors) //cytoskeleton

power plant //mitochondria/chloroplasts

here's what each part of the cell does:

plasma membrane :

regulates what enters and leaves the cell; where cell makes contact with the external environment

nucleus :

controls all cell activity; determines what proteins will be made

cytoplasm :

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

endoplasmic reticulum:

where ribosomes do their work

ribosomes :

build the proteins

golgi apparatus :

prepares proteins for use or export

lysosomes :

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell

cytoskeleton :

maintains cell shape

mitochondria/chloroplasts :

transforms one form of energy into another

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
