They lack a true nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and the other organelles present in eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bacteria do not contain membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria or chloroplasts, as eukaryotes do. However, photosynthetic bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, may be filled with tightly packed folds of their outer membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct option is C Nucleus.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bacteria do not have mitochondria. Bacteria and archaea lack any membrane-bound organelles.
