Question

Coacervates are ______.

Options

• colloidal droplets

• those that contain nucleoprotein

• protobiont

• both (i) and (ii)

Answer 1

Coacervates are colloidal droplets.

Explanation:

Coacervates are colloidal droplets or aggregates of protein-like molecules in an aqueous medium. They are not necessarily nucleoprotein-containing living entities, and the option stating both (i) and (ii) is therefore incorrect.
