What type of cells do not have ANY membrane bound organelles?
A
Eukaryotic cells
B
Prokaryotic cells
C
Human cells
D
Mitochondria cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, but they have no internal membrane-bound organelles within their cytoplasm. The absence of a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles differentiates prokaryotes from another class of organisms called eukaryotes.

Detailed explanation-2: -A prokaryotic cell is a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle.

Detailed explanation-3: -In prokaryotes, DNA is found in a central area of the cell known as the nucleoid, which is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Thus, Prokaryotic cells do not contain membrane-bound organelles.

Detailed explanation-4: -Eukaryotic cells are cells containing membrane-bound organelles and are the basis for both unicellular and multicellular organisms. In contrast, prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound organelles and are always part of unicellular organisms.
