The correct response is:

Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.

This statement accurately reflects the defining difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells contain them, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum.
