Cells with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles are called ____
A
prokaryotes
B
eukaryotes
C
bacteria
D
protists
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae. Eukaryotes may be either single-celled or multicellular.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eukaryotic cells like plant cell and animal cells contain a well defined nucleus and have all the membrane bound organelles. E.g., Golgi bodies, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, etc. Whereas prokaryotic cells like bacterial cells do not contain membrane bound cell organelles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eukaryotic cells contain several membrane-bound structures, or organelles, which are specialized cellular subunits that carry out specific cellular functions. The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear membrane, also called the nuclear envelope, which protects the genetic material stored inside.

Detailed explanation-4: -Eukaryotic cells are cells with membrane bound organelles such as a nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, vacuoles, and Golgi apparatus. A membrane bound organelle is an organelle that is surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer.

Detailed explanation-5: -Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles (such as the nucleus and mitochondria), while prokaryotic cells do not.
