The cells that you observe today result from thousands of years of evolution. Prokaryotic cells came earlier than the eukaryotic cells. One can say that eukaryotic cells are evolved from prokaryotic cells.

Prokaryotic cells are relatively superficial, and eukaryotic cells are more complex with the required modifications like division of labor in different organelles. Genomes of the prokaryote are much simpler than the eukaryote as it does not contain many associated proteins.

So, all these characteristics prove that eukaryotic cells are linked to prokaryotes.

DNA and membrane are the structures found in all types of cells, whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic (both plant and animal cells). Without the existence of these two structures, life or cell formation is not even possible. These are the two basic structures that are found in all cells.

The technical modifications that are observed in the case of plant cells are cell walls, chloroplasts, and central vacuole that makes them different from animal cells.

The modification that protects the plant cells are cell walls, while the chloroplasts are useful in photosynthesis; central vacuole helps store toxins and maintain turgidity.
