Which of the following cell structures can be found in prokaryotic cells?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. ribosomes.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells, like bacteria, are cells that do not have any organelles.  Unlike eukaryotic cells, they do not have a nucleus or other membrane-bound structures inside their cell membrane.  Therefore, prokaryotic cells do not have chloroplasts, mitochondria, or nuclei, but they do have ribosomes (as do eukaryotic cells) which are an important component of protein production in the cell.

Hope this helps!
