C Correct answer
Explanation

Prokaryotes are characterized by the absence of a membrane-bound nucleus, which is the defining feature that distinguishes them from eukaryotic cells. They possess DNA (though not enclosed in a nuclear membrane), some have cell walls, and certain prokaryotes like cyanobacteria contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis. The nucleus is a eukaryotic organelle that prokaryotes completely lack.
