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: -Prokaryotes, such as bacteria, do not contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts that we might find in a eukaryotic cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, a membrane-bound chamber where DNA is stored, while prokaryotic cells don’t. This is the feature that formally separates the two groups. Eukaryotes usually have other membrane-bound organelles in addition to the nucleus, while prokaryotes don’t.

Detailed explanation-4: -Comparing prokaryotes and eukaryotes The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ribosomes are different from other organelles because they have no membrane around them that separates them from other organelles.
