unicellular prokaryotes, called , contain chloroplast

Hello and welcome to OpenStudy. While cyanobacteria were traditionally considered algae, they are now classified as bacteria and therefore prokaryotes due to large differences such as the lack of a cell nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, the presence of a single circular chromosome, the presence of peptidoglycan in the cell walls, and ribosomes different in size and content from those of the eukaryotes.[15][16] Rather than in chloroplasts, they conduct photosynthesis on specialized infolded cytoplasmic membranes called thylakoid membranes. Therefore, they differ significantly from algae despite occupying similar ecological niches. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algae
