Answer:

Prokaryotes are always unicellular, while eukaryotes are often multi-celled organisms

eukaryotic cells are more than 100 to 10,000 times larger than prokaryotic cells

eukaryotic cells are more complex than prokaryotic cells

The DNA in eukaryotes is stored within the nucleus, while DNA is stored in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes

A Prokaryotic cell is surrounded by a single membrane layer but In the case of Eukaryotic, there are two surroundings 1. Plasma membrane 2. Nuclear membrane.
