Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is found in eukaryotic cells but NOT prokaryotic cells?
A
Cell membrane
B
Mitochondria
C
Ribosomes
D
DNA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Do prokaryotes have mitochondria? No, prokaryotes do not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are only found in eukaryotic cells. This is also true of other membrane-bound structures like the nucleus and the Golgi apparatus (more on these later).

Detailed explanation-2: -Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondria are in Eukaryotic Cells Only The mitochondria is a cytoplasmic membrane-bound organelle that is only found in eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells, which include bacteria and archaea cells, do not have mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-4: -In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells may contain several other types of organelles, which may include mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Prokaryotic cells do not have mitochondria. Most prokaryotes rely on their immediate environment to obtain energy. This process is facilitated by the electron transport chains in the plasma membrane. Mitochondria are only found in eukaryotic cells.
