Solution
Prokaryotes
:
Prokaryotes are single-cell primitive organisms that acquire energy by performing chemical reactions inside cells.
Glycolysis divides the glucose molecule in half and releases a small amount of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Prokaryotes lack mitochondria in their cell structure.
Prokaryotes synthesize most ATP on the surface of their cell membrane.
