Which of the following statements about the endosymbiotic theory is false?

A. Eukaryotic cells engulfed the ancestral bacteria from which mitochondria and chloroplasts are derived, and the two entities formed a symbiotic relationship.
B. The entire genome of the ancestral bacteria has been preserved in present-day mitochondria and chloroplasts.
C. Mitochondria and chloroplasts arose independently from free-living bacteria.
D. The ancestral bacteria, from which mitochondria and chloroplasts are derived, were capable of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration.

Given what you know about the differences between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells, which of the listed processes is possible to study in bacteria?a. formation of the endoplasmic reticulumb. DNA replicationc. how vesicles are secreted from Golgi apparatusd. how mitochondria get distributed to cells during cell divisionalso please explane why?

There is a topic that I am having a hard time understanding. What is the difference between a Prokaryotic Cell and a Eukaryotic Cell? I know what we (humans) are made of Eukaryotic Cells and foreign cells (bacteria) are prokaryotic cells. What's confusing me is when my textbook talks about them both having a cell wall. Prokaryotic Cells have a complex polysaccharide peptoglycan cell wall along with its membranes. Then it states that Eukaryotic Cells also cell walls, they are just simple composed of cellulose. When I hear the words Cell Wall, I immediately think of plants cells, not bacteria and animal cells. In this situation, does the term cell wall have a different meaning? Maybe I am over thinking this. Just an FYI this is for Microbiology, feel free to go into detail.
