Answer:

Prokaryotes have fewer cells structures, have no nucleus, and have a singular chromosome. Eukaryotes, however, have multiple chromosomes that contain a nucleus, cell structures, and many organelles.

Answer:

Cell division is simpler in prokaryotes than eukaryotes because prokaryotic cells themselves are simpler. Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome, no nucleus, and few other cell structures. Eukaryotic cells, in contrast, have multiple chromosomes contained within a nucleus, and many other organelles.
