Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -All prokaryotes have plasma membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes, a cell wall, DNA, and lack membrane-bound organelles. Many also have polysaccharide capsules. Prokaryotic cells range in diameter from 0.1–5.0 µm.

Detailed explanation-2: -The characteristics of prokaryotic cells are: Membrane bound cell organelles such as Mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, Chloroplasts are absent. A membrane bound well defined nucleus is absent. Genetic material is circular DNA and occurs naked in the cell cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prokaryotic cells, on the other hand, do not undergo mitosis and therefore have no need for a mitotic spindle.

Detailed explanation-4: -In prokaryotic cells, mitosis and meiosis are not seen. Thus prokaryotes do not go through mitosis.
