Solution
Prokaryotic cells
Prokaryotic cells are the cells that do not have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.”
A cell membrane does exist in prokaryotes.
It is normally semi-permeable and encloses the contents of the cell.
The bacterial cell membrane, which serves as the cell's primary osmotic barrier, is made up of phospholipids.
Phospholipids are amphipathic lipids that have a phosphate group covalently attached to them.
They make up the majority of the lipids in the cell membrane, accounting for more than half of all lipids.
