Solution

Prokaryotes:

  1. Prokaryotes are simple organisms that lack membrane-bound organelles.
  2. All prokaryotes are unicellular. They consist of only one cell. Example: bacteria.
  3. They possess a ‘nucleoid’ instead of a true nucleus. Nucleoid is an irregular-shaped region of the cell that contains circular DNA.
