Although generally not visible to the naked eye, organisms composed of prokaryotic cells still dominate the earth. Their collective mass is at least 10 times greater than the mass of all eukaryotes combined. Organisms composed of prokaryotic cells are classified into 2 main groups: archaea and bacteria. Archaea most closely resemble the first primitive cells on our planet.
Confidence votes 38. Prokaryotic cells typically have a single molecule of DNA in a closed loop floating free in a region of the cytoplasm called the nucleoid. Many species of prokaryotes also contain DNA in tiny ringlets known as plasmids in the cytoplasm. Eukaryotic cells are typically about ten times larger than prokaryotic cells and have a nucleus containing numerous strands of DNA.
