Which of the following statement is NOT correct regarding the prokaryotic cell?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) - Membrane bound cell organelles are present
The correct statement among the options provided is: Membrane-bound cell organelles are present.
Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, or Golgi apparatus, unlike eukaryotic cells. Instead, their internal structure is relatively simpler, with their genetic material (DNA) typically found in a region called the nucleoid, which lacks a membrane.
Therefore, the correct option is that membrane-bound cell organelles are not present in prokaryotic cells.
