Answer: B. organelles have no membranes

Step-by-step explanation:

Unlike eukaryotic cells, prokaryotic cells lack organelles with membranes.

So, prokaryotic cells are found in unicellular organisms with a single chromosome that have no nuclear envelope and no membrane-bound organelles i.e organelles like mitochondria, golgi bodies etc all lack membrane.

Examples of prokaryotic cells are bacteria and cyanobacteria
