Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells generally have which of the following feature in common?
Correct answer: C. Presence of ribosomes
- A. A membrane-bounded nucleus
- B. A cell wall made up cellulose
- C. Presence of ribosomes
- D. Linear genome
Explanation
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have ribosomes while membrane-bound nucleus, cellulosic cell wall, and linear chromosomes are found only in eukaryotic cells.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
