What do amoeba and yeast come under?
eukaryotes or prokaryotes??
they can come under prokaryotes as they reproduce by budding,(meosis)but then they can also come under eukaryotes as they have a nucleus.
so what group do they come under???

That's a good question - and that's one of the big struggles with taxonomy. Life has so many wild variations that it can be hard to develop rules of classification that neatly categorize organisms. Try wikipedia for a decent start on that.

Prokaryotes, simply because their nucleus are very simple as compared to eukaryotic nuclei. If you look closely, eukaryotic nuclei have a nucleolus and are more dense than prokaryotic nuclei. You yourself said that they reproduce by budding, only simple organisms like these undergo budding. Eukaryotic cells undergo the more complicated Mitosis before meiosis ensues. It's not just a matter of whether they have nuclei or not, but it also depends on the complexities of the structures and the intracellular processes of that organism that can be classified as Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic.

You need to re-read the appropriate chapters of your biology textbook, as it is clear from your comments that you have no understanding.
Amoeba and yeast are eukaryotes. Eukaryotes are defined by the presence of the nucleus.
Meiosis does not refer to budding.
