The correct Answer is:
To answer the question, "In eubacteria, a cellular component that resembles eukaryotic cell is?", we will analyze the options provided: plasma membrane, nucleus, ribosome, and cell wall. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Eubacteria**: Eubacteria are prokaryotic organisms, meaning they lack a true nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles that are characteristic of eukaryotic cells. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Plasma Membrane**: - Both eubacteria (prokaryotes) and eukaryotes have a plasma membrane. - The plasma membrane in both types of cells is composed of a lipid bilayer. - Therefore, this component is similar in both eubacteria and eukaryotic cells. - **Nucleus**: - Prokaryotes, including eubacteria, do not have a true nucleus; instead, they have a nucleoid which lacks a nuclear membrane. - Eukaryotes have a true nucleus enclosed by a nuclear membrane. - Thus, this component is not similar between the two. - **Ribosome**: - Ribosomes are present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, but they differ in size. - Prokaryotic ribosomes are 70S, while eukaryotic ribosomes are 80S. - Therefore, this component is not the same. - **Cell Wall**: - Both eubacteria and some eukaryotes (like plants and fungi) have cell walls. - However, the composition differs: eubacterial cell walls are primarily made of peptidoglycan, while plant cell walls are made of cellulose and fungal cell walls are made of chitin. - Hence, this component is also not similar. 3. **Conclusion**: After analyzing all the options, the only cellular component that resembles that of eukaryotic cells in eubacteria is the **plasma membrane**. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **plasma membrane** (Option A). ---
