Most bacteria have a single chromosome.
Its DNA is described as circular, because it is in the form of a loop. There are also small rings of DNA called plasmids, but these are not classed as chromosomes.
The cholera bacterium, Vibrio cholerae, has two chromosomes.

Does bacterial cell wall contain teichoic acid?
Yes, teichoic acids are bacterial cell wall polysaccharides.
How many chromosomes does the daughter cell get from the parent cell?
In mitotic cell division, the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiotic cell division, the daughter cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
How many chromosomes are seen in the human sperm cell but not in a human blood cell?
The human sperm cell has 23 chromosomes. White blood cells have 46 chromosomes. Mature red blood cells to not contain a nucleus, and therefore has no chromosomes. Platelets are cell fragments and also do not contain nuclei.
What is a difference between a typical animal cell and a bacterial cell?
The main difference between an animal cell and a bacterial cell is that a bacterial cell contains a plasmid, a ring of DNA, opposed to the chromosomes that animal cells possess. There are other differences, such as size (bacterial cells are many times smaller) and whether or not they contain membrane bound organelles, which bacteria do not. Bacteria cells have also flagella/flagellum that an animal cells (except spermatozoa or sperm cells) does not, a "tail" strand that extends out of the cell to propel it forward.
How many chromosomes does each egg cell contain?
23
Do chromosomes contain the genetic information of the bacterial cell?
Yes, chromosomes (the DNA) contain the genetic blueprints for all cells.
How many chromosomes does each new cell contain mitosis if the original cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?
How many chromosomes does each new cell contain after mitosis if the original cell had 52 original cell chromosomes?
Is a typical body cell called somatic cell?
Yes, it is. The somatic (body) cells of multi celled organisms that reproduce sexually contain pairs of chromosomes.
Do chromosomes only contain DNA?
Chromosomes of prokaryotic cell only contain DNA while chromosomes of eukaryotic cell are composed of DNA and protein.
How many chromosomes does the male sex cell contain?
The sperm cell contains 23 chromosomes.
What type of typical body cell has 46 chromosomes?
The typical body cell (or somatic cell) of a human has 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. In females, there are two X chromosomes and in males there is one X and one Y.
What cell has homologous chromosomes?
A somatic cell (body cell) is a cell that would have homologous chromosomes.
Does a prokaryotic cell contain chromosomes?
No,they do not have.They have plasmids.Only eukariyotes have chromosomes.
What do chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell contain?
DNA
Do blood cell contain chromosomes?

What does Chlamydia consist of?
Chlamydia includes a bacterial cell wall, ribosomes, RNA, DNA, and other typical bacterial cell parts.
Does bacterial cell wall contain teichoic acid?
Yes, teichoic acids are bacterial cell wall polysaccharides.
