In prokaryotes, the genetic material is
Options
- AClosed, coiled and circular ssDNA with histones
- BOpen, coiled, linear dsDNA without histones
- CClosed, coiled, circular dsDNA without histones
- DLinear, dsDNA with histones
Correct answer
C. Closed, coiled, circular dsDNA without histones
Step-by-step solution
In prokaryotes, nucleoid consists of closed, coiled, double-stranded circular DNA molecule without histone proteins. The polyamines are associated with the structure for inducing stability.
