Answer: A. eukaryotes.

Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms with no nuclear membrane-enclosed nucleus. These organisms are believed to be the origin of life and to have dominated the earth up to the Precambrian era. Prokaryotes, cells with a membrane-bound nucleus originate from eukaryotes and therefore have eukaryotes as their ancestors.
