True/False: Characteristics of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells

True

All prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells posses nuclear material and a fluid mosaic plasma membrane.

False

Both mitochondria and golgi bodies found in eukaryotes contain DNA and can replicate independently.

False

Gram-negative bacteria possess a complex lipopolysaccharide cell wall complete with a lipid bilayer, but lack the peptidoglycan component found in Gram-positive organisms.

False

When gram-negative bacteria are killed, their toxicity is also destroyed.

True

Hypertonic solutions may cause cells to lose water and shrink.

False

Spiral bacteria commonly exhibit multicellular forms such as chains, tetrads, and grapelike clusters.

True

The nuclear membranes of all eukaryotic cells contain pores to allow for communication between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
