D
Ribosomes
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the basic structure of prokaryotic cells: Prokaryotic cells are simpler than eukaryotic cells and lack membrane-bound organelles.
Identify the structures listed in the problem: Mitochondria, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Nucleus, and Ribosomes.
Recall that mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus are membrane-bound organelles, which are not present in prokaryotic cells.
Recognize that ribosomes are non-membrane-bound structures responsible for protein synthesis and are present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Conclude that among the given options, ribosomes are the only structure present in prokaryotic cells.
