Answer:

C. flagella

Step-by-step explanation:

Flagella are present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. However, in prokaryotic cells flagella are formed by a protein (flagellin) and in eukaryotes by microtubules.

Prokaryotic organisms do not have mitochondria, chloroplasts or endoplasmic reticulum due to their disorganized structure without specialization.
