In the context of prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes, which type of cell lacks a membrane-bound nucleus?
A
Prokaryotic cell
B
Eukaryotic cell
C
Animal cell
D
Plant cell
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the key difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells: prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells do.
Recall that the nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's genetic material in eukaryotic cells.
Recognize that prokaryotic cells have their genetic material located in a region called the nucleoid, which is not enclosed by a membrane.
Identify that animal and plant cells are types of eukaryotic cells, so they both have a membrane-bound nucleus.
Conclude that the type of cell lacking a membrane-bound nucleus is the prokaryotic cell.
