Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A nucleoid is a distinct region within the cell where the genetic material (chromosome) is located, but it is not membrane-bound. Prokaryotic cells lack a membrane-bound nucleus, which is a characteristic feature of eukaryotic cells. Ribosomes are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and chromosomes are found in both as well, although the organization and number of chromosomes differs between the two cell types.
