Organisms whose cells do not have a nucleus are called ____
A
Eukaryotes
B
Multicellular
C
Unicellular
D
Prokaryotes
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 lack a nucleus and membrane-bound structures. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and membrane-bound structures called organelles.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Prokaryotes (meaning ‘before nucleus’) are cells without a definite nucleus. The DNA floats in the cytoplasm and they divide through mitosis. RBC and platelets present in eukaryotes also do not have the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-5: -Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. All cells can are classified as prokaryotic or eukaryotic based on their internal structure. Eukaryotic cells contain a nucleus-a structure enclosed in a membrane that contains the majority of the cell’s genetic material.
