Yes. Prokaryotes are much too small to carry chloroplasts. It is theorized that chloroplasts were once prokaryotes that started a symbiotic relations with early eukaryotic cells, which explains why chloroplasts and mitochondria are found in the eukaryotic cell.

Which eukaryotic organelles are not present in all eukaryotic cells?

Centrioles and chloroplasts are eukaryotic organelles that are not present in all eukaryotic cells. Centrioles are typically found in animal cells where they play a role in cell division, while chloroplasts are only found in plant cells and some protists where they are involved in photosynthesis.


What organelles are found in prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cells plant cells and animal cells?

This may not help you much, bit eukaryotic cells are cells that do not have a nucleus.A prokaryote does not have a nucleus, nor does it have mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, and other organelles present in eukaryotic cells. Carboxysome structures, sometimes called polyhedral organelles because of their shape, perform metabolism functions inside the prokaryotic cell.


What is found only in eukaryotic cells?

Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that houses the genetic material. They also have membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus. Additionally, eukaryotic cells have a more complex structure compared to prokaryotic cells.


One difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is that only?

Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles.


What is present only in eukaryotic cells?

Mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus are all organelles that are present only in eukaryotic cells.


Contrast eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells?

Hey there! Eukaryotic cells: This cell is membrane bound and it has several organelles. It is found in Kingdom Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, and Protista can has several different types of cells in this kingdom. Prokaryotic cells: This cell is not membrane bound, and has no organelles (but do not confuse with DNA, because all life has DNA). These cells are found in only Kingdom Bacteria, and some organisms from Kingdom Protista


Which has only prokaryotic cells?

Plants can only have eukaryotic cells because they themselves are eukaryotic. Only a bacteria (which is a prokaryote) is able to reproduce to form another prokaryotic cell.


What structure is found in prokaryotic cell?

Prokaryotic cells lack any membrane bound organelles such as a nucleus, mitochondria, lysosomes, chloroplasts, golgi apparatus, etc. These membrane bound organelles are only found in eukaryotic cells.


DO prokaryotic cells have mitochondria?

No, prokaryotic cells do not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells that play a role in energy production through aerobic respiration. Prokaryotic cells generate energy through processes like glycolysis or fermentation.


What has only eaukaryotic cells have?

Can I has nucleus? Eukaryotic cells contain nuclei and organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.


What cell structures are found only in eukaryotic cell?

In the eukaryotic cell it has many membrane bound organelles like mitochondria, golgi apparatus and a nucleus. It could have unicellular organelles and could also have multi cellular organelles.


Where are cell parts packaged?

Scientifically explaining, they are membrane-covered organelles that are found only in the eukaryotic cell. Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-covered organelles. The only organelle they have, not membrane-covered, are ribosomes.
