Question
Which feature of mitochondria is absent in prokaryotes?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) lack membrane-bound organelles. They have a single cell membrane and no internal compartmentalization like the double-membraned, highly compartmentalized mitochondria found in eukaryotes.
Hint
Compartmentalization is a key eukaryotic feature.
