The presence of cholesterol in the plasma membranes of some animals.
1. | enables the membrane to stay fluid more easily when cell temperature drops. |
2. | enables the animal to remove hydrogen atoms from saturated phospholipids. |
3. | enables the animal to add hydrogen atoms to unsaturated phospholipids. |
4. | makes the membrane less flexible, allowing it to sustain greater pressure from within the cell. |
Prokaryotic cells have something unique in the form of:
1. Inclusion bodies
2. Plasmids
3. Cell wall
4. 70 S ribosomes
Gas vacuoles allow cyanobacteria to:
1. | Store carbon dioxide for assimilation |
2. | Control their buoyancy |
3. | Provide anaerobic conditions to nitrogenase |
4. | Eliminate toxic ammonia |
The lipid component of the plasma membrane mainly consists of:
1. Triglycerides
2. Cholesterol
3. Phosphoglycerides
4 Proteins

A feature unique to prokaryotes would be:
1. A cell wall not made up of cellulose
2. An extrachromosomal plasmid DNA
3. A cell membrane of peptidoglycan
4. Presence of inclusions
Chromatophores are:
1. present in liopolysaccharide layer of gram negative bacteria
2. colored pigments present in fluorescent bacteria
3. vesicles that store pigments in prokaryotic cells
4. extensions on membrane in cynobacteria
