Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In prokaryotes , the reproduction takes place by asexual means such as binary fission whereas in eukaryotes the reproduction takes place by sexual means.

2. In eukaryotes mates are required which allows the fusion of males and female gametes, whereas in prokaryotes no mates are required offspring produce from single parent.

3. In prokaryotes many offspring produce from a single parent whereas in eukaryotes only few offspring are produced.

4. Growth of offspring development is complex in eukaryotes whereas the offspring development is simple in prokaryotes.
