The main difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the presence of nucleus in eukaryotes and its absence in prokaryotes. Also, prokaryotes are unicellular, so one cell is a whole organism. On the other hand, eukaryotes are mainly multicellular, and thus more complex. More complex DNA is inside the nucleus in the eukaryotes which enables them to conduct a wider range of functions. Prokaryotes, as a single cell, have simple functions present.
