Which is Not a Component of Prokaryotic Cells

Question

Which is not a component of prokaryotic cells?
A) A membrane-enclosed nucleus
B) RNA
C) Ribosomes
D) Circular DNA
E) RNA polymerase

Accepted Answer

Prokaryotic cells do not have a membrane-enclosed nucleus, which is a characteristic feature of eukaryotic cells. Instead, prokaryotic DNA is found in the nucleoid region of the cell, which is not surrounded by a membrane. Prokaryotic cells do contain RNA, ribosomes, circular DNA, and RNA polymerase.
