B. the use of proteins as information storage molecules
C. similarity in size
D. the use of DNA as the information-storage molecule
E. a membrane-enclosed nucleus

The correct answer is:

D. the use of DNA as the information-storage molecule

Both prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells use DNA to store genetic information. Other options are not common to both cell types, with prokaryotes lacking membrane-enclosed organelles and a nucleus.
