Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What distinguishes a eukaryotic cell from a prokaryotic cell is the presence of
A
A cell wall
B
A nucleus
C
DNA
D
Ribosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Prokaryotic cells do not have a membrane-bounded nucleus, but eukaryotic cells do have such nucleus’.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -All cells have a plasma membrane, DNA, and proteins. Of the choices given, the most reliable way to tell the difference between cell types is the presence of a well-defined nucleus, which is found only in eukaryotes.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
