Question

Which is not true about the relationships between macromolecules in a prokaryote versus macromolecules in a eukaryote?

A. Carbohydrates are different because only prokaryotes have a cell wall
B. Proteins are the same because they are comprised of amino acids in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
C. Lipids differ in quantity because eukaryotes have extra ones surrounding their organelles
D. Nucleic acids are different because prokaryotes do not wrap theirs around proteins

Answer 1

Answer to this question is option A.Because in this question we have to find out wrong one and in option A they are saying carbohydrates are different, because only prokaryotes have cell wall but cell wall is present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.So this option is wrong.

Option B is right because all proteins whether it is of prokaryotes or eukaryotes are made from amino acids in both.

Option C is also right, because eukaryotes have more amount of lipids than prokaryotes as their are no membrane bound organelle in prokaryotes.

In option D it is said that nucleic acids differs in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.Yes it is different in them as in prokaryotes nuclear material is simple not bound with histone like proteins as found in eukaryotes.So this option is also right.

Only A option is wrong,all other are right,so answer is A.
