By the way, I LOVE BIOLOGY!
the characteristics of prokaryotes are:
- Lack an organised nucleus and other membrane organelles
- Found in a central part of the cell which is known as the Nucleoid
- The cell wall of the prokaryotic cell acts as an extra layer of protection as it can help maintain dehydration and the cell shape

(Got the information from my biology notes!)

Answer:

Prokaryotes lack an organized nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic DNA is found in a central part of the cell called the nucleoid. The cell wall of a prokaryote acts as an extra layer of protection, helps maintain cell shape, and prevents dehydration.

hope this helps....
