The question asks which statement is FALSE about prokaryotes. 
Option 1: 'are not photosynthetic.' This is false because many prokaryotes are indeed photosynthetic, such as cyanobacteria that perform photosynthesis using chlorophyll-like pigments. Saying prokaryotes are not photosynthetic ignores these organisms and is incorrect. 
Option 2: 'lack mitochondria.' This is true; prokaryotes do not contain membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria. Their energy-generating processes occur in the cytoplasm and plasma membrane without mitochondria. 
Option 3: 'include both Archaea and Bacteria.' This is true; the domain Prokaryota (often split into Archaea and Bacteria) comprises both groups, so the statement is accurate. 
Option 4: 'are smaller than Eukaryotes.' This is generally true; prokaryotic cells are typically smaller in size compared to most eukaryotic cells, though there is some size variation. 
Option 5: 'have circular chromosomes.' This is true for most bacteria and many archaea, which commonly possess circular DNA; there are variations, but the characteristic is predominantly correct. 
In summary, only Option 1 presents a claim that contradicts well-established facts about photosynthetic prokaryotes, making it the false statement among the options.
