Solution

The correct option is B Plasma membrane
  • Prokaryotic cells have primitive karyon, i.e. primitive nucleus, not having its own nuclear membrane.
  • The prokaryotic cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan while the eukaryotic plant cell wall is made up of cellulose.
  • The eukaryotic fungal cell wall is made of chitin.
  • Prokaryotic cells have 70S ribosomes while eukaryotes have 80S ribosomes in their cytoplasm.
  • The cell membrane structure is essentially the same in a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell and made up of a phospholipid bilayer.
So, the correct answer is 'Plasma membrane'.
