Which of the following best explains the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells?
A
Prokaryotic cells have a larger size compared to eukaryotic cells.
B
Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.
C
Eukaryotic cells are always unicellular, while prokaryotic cells are multicellular.
D

Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the key structural differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.
Understand that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, which are absent in prokaryotic cells.
Recognize that prokaryotic cells are generally smaller and simpler in structure compared to the larger and more complex eukaryotic cells.
Note that eukaryotic cells can be either unicellular or multicellular, whereas prokaryotic cells are typically unicellular.
Conclude that the presence of a nucleus is a defining feature of eukaryotic cells, distinguishing them from prokaryotic cells, which lack a nucleus.
