Bacteria have circular chromosomes of DNA. Most bacteria have a single copy, but some may have two.
They can also have plasmids, which are accessory molecules of DNA and are generally much smaller that the chromosome.
Also, the singular is bacterium.

How is the genetic material in a bacterial cell carried?
Bacteria are prokaryotes, which means that they do not have a nucleus (unlike eukaryotes, which do). Instead, their genetic material is contained freely in the cytoplasm of the cell; it is not bound inside a membrane.
How does DNA technology transfer bacteria genes from cell to cell?
DNA technology will transfer bacteria genes from cell to cell.
What is the genetic material in a bacterial cell?
Yes it is located in In a bacterial cell, the genetic material is just floating in the cytoplasm in a region called the necleoid. There are no membranes surrounding it.
Which best describes transduction in bacteria?
Bacteria transfer DNA with a bacteriophage.
Are the physical structures of DNA and protein found in the nucleus?
In an animal or plant cell, DNA is found in the nucleus, inside chromosomes. In a bacteria cell, DNA is not in the nucleus because there is no nucleus in a bacteria cell I hope this helps:)
What is a single loop of DNA found in bacteria?
bacterial plasmid/ plasmid ring
What is found in the cytoplasmof a bacteria cell?
DNA and ribosomes.
The information in DNA is contained in what?
DNA inside Genes, Genes inside Chromosomes, Chromosones inside Necleus of a cell unless the cell is a bacteria. Bacteria dont have nuclei.
Where in a cell are prokaryotic chromosomes found?
The region of the cytoplasm containing the DNA is called the nucleoid. The term "nucleus" is not appropriate, as there is no nuclear membrane.In bacteria there is a single chromosome, except in the interval between DNA replication and cell division. The chromosome is called circular, meaning that there are no free ends; the DNA molecule is in a loop.
What effect might conjugation have on the offspring of the bacteria that underwent on conjugation?
Bacteria take DNA from their environment.Bacteria inject DNA into another cell
What effect might conjugation have on the offspring of the bacteria that underwent conjugation?

What does bacteriophage inject into a cell?
A bacteriophage ("eater of bacteria") inject their DNA (or RNA) into the cell.
