Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The correct difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is ____
A
Prokaryotes are ancient cells that do not yet have a nucleus and nuclear membrane, while eukaryotes already have all of them
B
Prokaryotes are small and prokaryotes are larger so they can be seen by the naked eye
C
Chromosomes in prokaryotes are many while in eukaryotes only a few
D
Prokaryotes have a nuclear membrane while eukaryotes do not
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store their genetic information.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eukaryotic cells are cells containing membrane-bound organelles and are the basis for both unicellular and multicellular organisms. In contrast, prokaryotic cells do not have any membrane-bound organelles and are always part of unicellular organisms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, a membrane-bound chamber where DNA is stored, while prokaryotic cells don’t. This is the feature that formally separates the two groups. Eukaryotes usually have other membrane-bound organelles in addition to the nucleus, while prokaryotes don’t.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
