| ______ surround organelles allowing seprate reactions to take place | membranes |
| __________ __________ protects the DNA from chemicals in cell that would damage it. | nuclear membrane |
| eukayotic cells are more efficient because of __________________________________________________________________________ | compartmentation seprates specific processes and enables a division of labor within the cell |
