Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the basic characteristics of prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are simpler than eukaryotic cells and are typically smaller.
Recognize that prokaryotic cells do not have a membrane-bound nucleus. Instead, their genetic material is located in a region called the nucleoid.
Identify that prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria. This is a key difference from eukaryotic cells.
Note that prokaryotic cells usually have a single circular chromosome, rather than multiple linear chromosomes found in eukaryotic cells.
Conclude that the statement 'They lack a membrane-bound nucleus' is true for prokaryotic cells, based on the characteristics discussed.
