Has cytoplasm
A
Prokaryote
B
Eukaryote
C
both
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cell is located between the cell membrane and nuclear membrane, while in prokaryotic cells the cytoplasm fills the whole space bounded by the cell membrane. The cytoplasm of both eukaryote and prokaryote cells consists of a gelatinous liquid known as cytosol.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cytoplasm can be divided into two primary parts: the endoplasm (endo-, -plasm) and ectoplasm (ecto-, -plasm). The endoplasm is the central area of the cytoplasm that contains the organelles. The ectoplasm is the more gel-like peripheral portion of the cytoplasm of a cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both plant cells and animal cells contain mitochondria and cytoplasm. All cells in general contain cytoplasm, but only eukaryotes (plant and animal cells) will contain membrane bound organelles, which include mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant and animal cells also have many common organelles, including the nucleus, cell membrane (called the plasma membrane in animals), endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and cytoplasm, as well as several others.

Detailed explanation-5: -Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have structures in common. All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA.
