• Organisms on Earth are broadly classified into prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

• Prokaryotes are unicellular and lack organelles like mitochondria, with their DNA not packaged into a nucleus.

• Eukaryotes, on the other hand, have mitochondria, a nucleus that houses their DNA, and many eukaryotes are complex multicellular beings.
