A biologist sorts every cell she studies into one of two broad categories. Those categories are eukaryotic and:

  1. Prokaryotic
  2. Photographic
  3. Periodic
  4. Peripheral
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Prokaryotic

1. Two broad groups cover all cells. 2. One group lacks a true nucleus. 3. It is prokaryotic. _Source: OpenStax Biology 2e, Chapter 4, Cell Structure._
