Which of the following clues would tell you if a cell is prokaryotic or eukaryotic? a. whether or not the cell carries out cellular metabolismb. whether or not the cell contains DNAc. the presence or absence of ribosomesd. whether or not the cell is partitioned by internal membranese. the presence or absence of a rigid cell wall

d. whether or not the cell is partitioned by internal membranes.

Explanation:

The prokaryotic cells are those which do not have a defined or definite nucleus because the nucleus is not bounded by the nuclear membrane. This type of nucleus is called nucleon. The prokaryotic cell also does not have membrane-bound cell organelles. Thus, the prokaryotic cell is not partitioned by internal membranes.

Whereas, a eukaryotic cell has a well-defined or definite nucleus and membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum. Thus, the eukaryotic cell is partitioned by internal membranes.
