Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures.
Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome: a piece of circular,

outside the plasma membrane.
Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus and organelles, and are enclosed by a plasma
membrane.
