What characteristics of Eukaryotic cells gives them greater capacity for specialization than Prokaryotic cell have?

There are a couple answers I can think of at the moment. One is that eukaryotes have membrane bound organelles. This allows eukaryotes to produce more of that organelle in order to adapt to the cells needs. For instance, a muscle cell will have many more mitochondria than a epithelial cell. Eukaryotes are also much bigger than prokaryotes, leaving room for this specialization. The final way is DNA organization. The circular DNA of bacteria can encode for a limited number proteins. Plasmids can expand this a little, but it still pretty tiny compared to the capacity of eukaryotic chromosomes.

Is eukaryotic multicellular?
Your question needs a little bit of understanding of the facts. Organisms have cells that are either prokaryotic or eukaryotic. But prokaryotic cells don't form complex structures. They are found most of the time as one cell, sometimes are two together or a cluster or a string. Ex: the bacteria cocci, round-like, are found as just cocci (one) or two (dicocci) or a cluster (staphylococci) or a string (streptococci). So, eukaryotes are made of many cells that make tissues, organs, organ systems and organisms.
What are characteristics of the kingdom fungi?
Fungi are eukaryotic, non-vascular organisms, that reproduce through spores, most are multicellular and some are unicellular, they can reproduce sexually or asexually, they are also heterotrophic.
What cell lacks nuclei?
A prokaryotic cell has no nucleus. Instead of being stored in the nucleus, the cell's DNA is found freely in its cytoplasm. This is in contrast to eukaryotic cells, whose DNA is stored in the nucleus. All complex organisms are eukaryotes. Prokaryotes include bacteria.
What is the definition of reproductive capacity?
reproductive capacity
What is the carrying capacity in the taiga?
a low carring capacity

What are the advantages and disadvantages of specialization at different levels?
One very obvious advantage when a person is a specialist of many levels is the capacity to be assigned at any position in the company structure. The disadvantage though is that the same person cannot skillfully use all of the specialization to all levels at the same time. Meaning, the other skills will become unusable.
