Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Comparing prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells, which is an accurate statement?
A
Prokaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles and eukaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles.
B
Prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells reproduce by meiosis.
C
Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller than eukaryotic cells.
D
Prokaryotic cells are more complex than eukaryotic cells.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells (about 10 times smaller), their small size allows them to grow faster & multiply more rapidly than eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, have no nucleus, and lack organelles. All prokaryotic cells are encased by a cell wall.

Detailed explanation-3: -They are organisms which do not have proper cellular organization i.e they lack cellular organelles and a nucleus and therefore are small in size.

Detailed explanation-4: -Comparing prokaryotes and eukaryotes 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-5: -Prokaryotic cell is usually small (0.1-5.0m) in size whereas eukaryotic cell size is comparatively larger (5-100m). Prokaryotic cells multiply very rapidly by asexual means like binary fission, sporulation etc.
