A
Centrioles
B
Lysosomes
C
Plasma membrane
D
Mitochondria
Explanation: 

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: -Prokaryotic cells lack nuclear envelope, membrane-bound cell organelles like endoplasmic reticulum (ER), lysosomes, mitochondria, etc. They have DNA as genetic material, cell wall, cell membrane, and 70S ribosomes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: The structure which is not found in a prokaryotic cell is the nuclear membrane.
