Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus to protect the DNA from breaking down.
A
That’s true!
B
That’s false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotes are organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and other organelles. Prokaryotes are divided into two distinct groups: the bacteria and the archaea, which scientists believe have unique evolutionary lineages. Most prokaryotes are small, single-celled organisms that have a relatively simple structure.

Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotic cells possess innate and adaptive immune systems that conceptually parallel those found in eukaryotic organisms [1]. Prokaryotic restriction endonucleases function as an ‘innate’ immune defense mechanism, recognizing conserved nucleotide sequences and subsequently cleaving foreign nucleic acids.

Detailed explanation-3: -Only the single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea are classified as prokaryotes-pro means before and kary means nucleus. Animals, plants, fungi, and protists are all eukaryotes-eu means true-and are made up of eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
