The correct Answer is:
To answer the question about how eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells, we will analyze the provided options step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Locomotory Structures**: - Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells can have locomotory structures (like flagella and cilia). However, the complexity of these structures is greater in eukaryotic cells. - **Conclusion**: This option does not distinctly differentiate eukaryotic from prokaryotic cells. 2. **Understanding Cytoskeleton**: - Both types of cells have cytoskeletal structures. While eukaryotic cells have a more complex and organized cytoskeleton, prokaryotic cells do have simpler forms of cytoskeletal elements. - **Conclusion**: This option also does not provide a clear distinction between the two cell types. 3. **Understanding the Nucleus with Nuclear Membrane**: - Eukaryotic cells possess a well-defined nucleus that is enclosed by a nuclear membrane. This nucleus contains nucleolus and is more complex. - In contrast, prokaryotic cells do not have a true nucleus; instead, they have a nucleoid region where a single, circular piece of DNA is located. - **Conclusion**: This option clearly differentiates eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic cells. 4. **Evaluating the Option "All of the Above"**: - Since the first two options do not provide a clear distinction, the option "all of the above" is also incorrect. - **Conclusion**: This option is not valid. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is that eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells in having a **nucleus with a nuclear membrane**.
