Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Bacterial cells are ____
A
Prokaryotes
B
Eukaryotes
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cell types in Bacteria and Archaea are considered as “prokaryotes.” The use of the term prokaryote was first introduced as a result of electron microscope studies showing a shared simple cell structure among bacteria (Stanier & Van Niel 1962).

Detailed explanation-2: -Only the single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea are classified as prokaryotes-pro means before and kary means nucleus. Animals, plants, fungi, and protists are all eukaryotes-eu means true-and are made up of eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bacteria are classified as prokaryotes because they lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. All bacteria are prokaryotes, and while they may have other cellular structures such as a cell wall, cilia, or flagella, they lack a nucleus, making them prokaryotic.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cells fall into one of two broad categories: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. The single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea are classified as prokaryotes (pro = before; karyon– = nucleus). Animal cells, plant cells, fungi, and protists are eukaryotes (eu = true).

Detailed explanation-5: -The bacteria are the oldest and simplest living organisms, and all of the bacteria are “prokaryotes, ‘’ meaning that they do not have a true membrane-bound nucleus as eukaryotes do. [Prokaryote is derived from Greek, meaning “before nucleus"; eukaryote means “true nucleus."]
