Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the basic differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.
Identify the structures listed in the problem: cytoplasm, nucleus, cell membrane, and ribosomes.
Recall that the nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that houses the cell's genetic material and is a defining feature of eukaryotic cells.
Recognize that prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus; their genetic material is not enclosed within a membrane.
Conclude that the nucleus is the structure found in eukaryotic cells but not in prokaryotic cells.
