Question

Which structure is found in the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell, but is not found in the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell

Answer 1

DNA is cytoplasmic (extranuclear) in Prokaryotes but intranuclear in Eukaryotes.

Answer 2

The correct answer is - DNA.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have distinct features and characters that distinguish them and the organisms they are made up of these cells. Prokaryotic cells do not possess the nucleus in the cells as eukaryotic cells do.

In eukaryotic cells, there are several membrane-bound cell organelle present in the cytoplasm but DNA is only present in the nucleus, however in prokaryotic cells there is DNA is only present in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is - DNA.
