Brief Explanations
- Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles. They have a single, circular DNA molecule, a cell wall (in most cases), and ribosomes for protein synthesis.
- (a) Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus enclosed by a nuclear membrane, multiple linear chromosomes, and various membrane - bound organelles like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, etc.
(b) Examples of eukaryotic cells include animal cells (such as skin cells, nerve cells), plant cells (leaf cells, root cells), and fungal cells (yeast cells).
