Its the difference between DNA and RNA.
DNA = Deoxyribonucleic acid
RNA = Ribonucleic Acid.
Meaning they have different structures based on the different sugars.
And also the fact that DNA is double stranded (in the double helix form) and RNA is single stranded.

∙ 11y agoBacterial DNA does not have the introns that make human (and other organisms) DNA so diverse. Many more different sequences can be assembled from human DNA because of the the introns. The exons can be spliced together in different orders so that different proteins can be made. Bacterial DNA is far more compact. A greater % of bacterial DNA is actually expressed partly because they don't have the introns to cut out.

∙ 9y agoThe question is lacking details, but I think this may be the answer you're looking for:
Bacterial DNA isn't bound to a nucleus, unlike the DNA of more complex organisms. In other words, it sits loosely in the cytoplasm.

Can DNA fragments from human and bacteria be joined?
Yes, DNA SEGMENTS from humans and bacteria are joined by Enzymes
Why do Bacteria differ from viruses because bacteria have?
Because bacteria have only DNA as genetic material but viruses have RNA or DNA as genetic material. viruses are harmful but most of the bacteria are useful.
What would Identify one way in which bacteria differ from humans?
Organisation. Bacteria have cellular level of organisation and humans have organ system level of organisation.
How is frog DNA different from human DNA?
All the DNA is chemically the same. It is the sequence pattern (the way A, T, G, C organized) would differ from one species to another. The DNA of bacteria from one species to other will differ tremendously if they are distantly related.
Which molecule from humans is inserted into bacteria to cause them to produce insulin?
No. When genes from humans are inserted into bacteria, the bacteria acts as factories that produce chemicals of importance to humans, such as insulin.

What DNA do elephants have?
Elephant DNA has a double helix structure like the DNA of humans. Elephants have 28 pairs of chromosomes whereas we humans have 23 pairs so we differ in this aspect.

What molecule carries the genetic information for bacteria- flies- mushroom and humans and everything living?
DNA - except i think its RNA in bacteria but I'm not entirely sure, so just say DNA
What is genetic evidence?
The amino acids of humans and apes differ by 1 percent
Which molecule from humans is inserted into bacteria to cause them to produce insulin?
No. When genes from humans are inserted into bacteria, the bacteria acts as factories that produce chemicals of importance to humans, such as insulin.
Which best describes transduction in bacteria?
Bacteria transfer DNA with a bacteriophage.
Does DNA synthesize in bacteria?
Does DNA synthesize in bacteria?
Why does binary fission in bacteria differ from mitosis?
Binary fission in bacteria differs from mitosis because there is nuclear membrane involved. It also has simple DNA strand which has no spindle fibers to be formed.
How does the DNA of yellow perch differ from human DNA?
The DNA of yellow perch does not differ from human DNA except in the sequences of the bases.
