The terms prokaryotic and eukaryotic refer primarily to the presence of a cellular nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, and prokaryotes don't.
Prokaryotic cells contain no nucleus... where as eukaryotic are nucleus containing cells... I rememeber it by saying PRO- means before... its BEFORE they have a nucleus
Plants are considered to be eukaryotic organisms. The main difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells is the presence of membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotic cells.
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA
Difference arises between well developed nucleus & less developed nucleus. The prokaryotes have well developed nucleus while the eukaryotes have advanced nucleus with nuclear membrane & nucleolus.

Presence of nucleus eukaryotic cells always have a nucleus prokaryotic never does

Not all cells have a nucleus. Biology breaks cell types into eukaryotic(those with a defined nucleus) and prokaryotic (those with no defined nucleus). You may have heard of chromatin and DNA. You don't need a nucleus to have DNA.

The primary identifying feature of the eukaryotic cell is the presence of a nucleus, which is the most important intracellular structure and encloses the cells genetic material. In addition, there are other complex organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex that are more evolved in eukaryotic cells compared to their prokaryotic counterparts.
Eukaryotic cells contain more than one chromosome, having nucleus, and contain mitochondria while prokaryotic cells have no nucleus, no mitochondria, and contains plasmids. Some characteristics of plant cells include a cellular wall made of cellulose, a rectangular shape, the presence of chloroplasts, and, in some cases, the presence of cilia. As for animal cells, they do not have a cell wall, they have a roundish shape, no chloroplasts, and all types have cilia.
Prokaryotes are bacteria and, eukaryotes are humans, animals etc. Prokaryotes do NOT have a nucleus. They have DNA rings/circles instead. Hence you can recognise a eukaryote by the presence of the nucleus.
The major structural advantage of a eukaryotic cell over a prokaryotic cell is the presence of a nuclear membrane. This provides added support to the organism and protection of the genetic material.
