What evolutionary advantage does a eukaryotic cell have compared with a prokaryotic cell?

Prokayotes may be defined as the organisms that lacks the nucleus and the membrane bound cell organelle. Eukaryotes have the well defined nucleus and contains the membrane bound cell organelle.

The evolutionary advantage that has been noticed in the eukaryotic cells is the compartmentalization of the cell. The cell compartmentalization separates the cell organelle into the specialized functions. This division of labor increases the efficiency of the cell and regulates the evolution of the complex multi cellular organism.

his research revealed two genetically different groups of prokaryotes, which justified splitting kingdom monera into two kingdoms. the genetic and cellular differences were so great, that these two kingdoms were eventually placed into different domains in the current three-domain system.
