Genetic Information in Bacteria Is

Question

Genetic information in bacteria is:
A)found in the nucleus
B)found only in RNA
C)found in DNA condensed by histones
D)sometimes found in the form of plasmids

Accepted Answer

Genetic information in bacteria is typically found in circular DNA molecules called chromosomes. However, bacteria can also have small circular DNA molecules called plasmids that contain additional genetic information. Therefore, option D is correct as it states that genetic information can be found in the form of plasmids. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the location or structure of genetic information in bacteria.
