Prokaryotic cells DIFFER from eukaryotic cells in that prokaryotes:
AHave no DNA at all in the cytoplasm
BHave larger cell volumes than eukaryotes
CHave a true membrane-bound nucleus
DLack membrane-bound nucleus + organelles
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Lack membrane-bound nucleus + organelles
Prokaryotes (bacteria, archaea) lack a true membrane-bound nucleus (DNA in nucleoid region instead) and lack membrane-bound organelles (mitochondria, ER, etc.). Eukaryotes have both. Both have DNA + ribosomes.
