Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a nucleus.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The main difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. The nucleus is where cells store their DNA, which is the genetic material. The nucleus is surrounded by a membrane. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -A prokaryotic cell doesn’t have a nuclear membrane around the nucleus. The nucleus without a nuclear membrane is called the naked nucleus and it is not considered as a true nucleus. So prokaryotic cells don’t have a true nucleus.

Detailed explanation-4: -Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae.

Detailed explanation-5: -In prokaryotes, the DNA (chromosome) is in contact with the cellular cytoplasm and is not in a housed membrane-bound nucleus. In eukaryotes, however, the DNA takes the form of compact chromosomes separated from the rest of the cell by a nuclear membrane (also called a nuclear envelope).
