Solution

The correct option is C A well-defined nucleus
A eukaryotic cell has a well-developed nucleus which means the nucleus is bound by a membrane.
In the bacterial cell, the genetic material lies in the cytoplasm; there is an absence of a nucleus with a nuclear membrane. Therefore, a bacterial cell does not possess a well-defined nucleus.
Hence, the correct option is D.
