You're looking through a microscope at a eukaryotic cell and notice that its genetic material (DNA) is openly floating around the cytosol.

What could be a possible cause for what you're seeing through the microscope?

Choose 1 answer:

(Choice A)
A
The lysosome is damaged.

(Choice B)
B
The nucleus is damaged.

(Choice C)
C
The vacuole is damaged.

(Choice D)
D
There is no cause; genetic material should be floating around the cell in this manner.

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. The nucleus is damaged.

Explanation:

Eukaryotic cells contain a membrane-bound nucleus and numerous membrane-enclosed organelles. DNA is present in the nucleus of the cell. If the nuclear membrane is ruptured/damaged then the nucleoplasm along with the DNA will openly float around the cytosol.

Answer: The nucleus is damaged.

Explanation: The nucleus is supposed to keep genetic material (DNA) housed within its membrane-bound structure, but in this cell, the genetic material is openly floating around the cell's cytosol. Have a nice day :)
