A prokaryotic cell has three architectural regions:

Enclosing the cell is the cell envelope

1) Enclosing the cell is the cell envelope

Inside the cell is the cytoplasmic region that contains the genome (DNA), ribosomes and various sorts of inclusions.

2) Inside the cell is the cytoplasmic region that contains the genome (DNA), ribosomes and various sorts of inclusions.

On the outside, flagella and pili project from the cell's surface. These are structures (not present in all prokaryotes) made of proteins that facilitate movement and communication between cells.

3) On the outside, flagella and pili project from the cell's surface. These are structures (not present in all prokaryotes) made of proteins that facilitate movement and communication between cells.
