Answer 1

Answer:
$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Prokaryotic cell}& & \text{Eukaryotic cell}\\ & & & \\ 1.& \text{Size: generally small}(1-10\mu m)1\mu m={10}^{-6}m& 1.& \text{Size: generally large}(5-100\mu m)\\ 2.& \text{Nuclear region: Poorly defined because of the absence of a nuclear membrane, and is known as nucleoid}& 2.& \text{Nuclear region: well-defined and surrounded by a nuclear membrane}\\ 3.& \text{Chromosome: single}& 3.& \text{More than one chromosome}\\ 4.& \text{Membrane-bound cell organelles are absent}& 4.& \text{Membrane-bound cell organelles such as mitochondria, plastids, etc., are present.}\end{array}$
