Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotes generally have cell walls and some organelles such as ribosomes. However, their unique feature is that they do not have. Since they do not have membrane-bound organelles, they also do not have nuclei. Prokaryotes still contain DNA that consists of nucleic acids, but they float freely in their cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Do prokaryotes have a nucleus? Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus. Instead prokaryote DNA can be found, bundled but free-floating, in a central region called the nucleoid. Prokaryote DNA is usually found as a single chromosome of circular DNA.

Detailed explanation-4: -The cell membrane is bound to DNA and is in close contact with the cytoplasm. There is no enclosing membrane, because there is no actual nucleus, but merely a concentration of DNA called a nucleoid. Therefore, prokaryotes can live without a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are several differences between the two, but the biggest distinction between them is that eukaryotic cells have a distinct nucleus containing the cell’s genetic material, while prokaryotic cells don’t have a nucleus and have free-floating genetic material instead.
