Question

Primitive anaerobic prokaryotic cells did not contain which of the following ?

A) mitochondria

B) DNA

C) cell membranes

D) RNA

Answer 1

I believe the answer is A

Answer 2

A) mitochondria

Step-by-step explanation:

Prokaryotic cells are the ones that lack membrane-bound well define the nucleus. They also lack the membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, etc. These cells have a cell membrane and their DNA is present in the cytoplasm in the nucleoid region. So, a primitive anaerobic prokaryotic cell can not have mitochondria which are a characteristic feature of eukaryotes.
