The structure that is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is the **ribosome**. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis and are present in all living cells, regardless of their classification as prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
The other options listed (lysosome, mitochondrion, nucleus) are specific to eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles like lysosomes or mitochondria, and they also lack a nucleus.
