Detailed explanation-2: -Bacteria are placed in the kingdom Monera and have a prokaryotic cell, whereas protists are placed in the kingdom Protista and have a eukaryotic cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -As with all eukaryotic cells, protists contain membrane-bound nuclei and endomembrane systems, as well as numerous organelles.
