Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotic cells do not have mitochondria. Most prokaryotes rely on their immediate environment to obtain energy. This process is facilitated by the electron transport chains in the plasma membrane. Mitochondria are only found in eukaryotic cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotes lack mitochondria and instead produce their ATP on their cell surface membrane.
Detailed explanation-3: -They have no nucleus; instead their genetic material is free-floating within the cell. They also lack the many membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells. Thus, prokaryotes have no mitochondria.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mitochondria are bounded by a double-membrane system, consisting of inner and outer membranes. Folds of the inner membrane (cristae) extend into the matrix.
Detailed explanation-5: -The prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus, membrane-bounded cell organelles (like chloroplast, mitochondria, ER, Golgi bodies, etc.)
