GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Algae and bacteria are examples of prokaryotes.

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.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell types in Bacteria and Archaea are considered as “prokaryotes.” The use of the term prokaryote was first introduced as a result of electron microscope studies showing a shared simple cell structure among bacteria (Stanier & Van Niel 1962).

Detailed explanation-4: -Examples of prokaryotes are blue-green algae, bacteria and mycoplasma. Among prokaryotes, bacteria are the most common and multiply very fast. They are single-celled and range in size from 0.2 to 10 microns (about 10 times smaller than most plant and animal cells).

Detailed explanation-5: -All bacteria are prokaryotes, and while they may have other cellular structures such as a cell wall, cilia, or flagella, they lack a nucleus, making them prokaryotic. There is only one other type of cell that is prokaryotic, which is archaea, single-celled organisms that are related to bacteria.
