are generally less than 2 pm - Prokaryotes only

multicellular - eukaryotes only

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are generally unicellular, that is, they are made up of single cells only. However, there are unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes with some eukaryotes like humans and advanced plants having as many as millions of cells.

Prokaryotes generally lack nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as chloroplast and mitochondrion. Eukaryotes on the other hand have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondrion and chloroplast.

When it comes to size, prokaryotes are generally small and microscopic while eukaryotes consist of both microscopic and macroscopic cells or organisms. However, prokaryotes are generally smaller than microscopic eukaryotes.
