according to my calculations, the answer to this question is a single circular DNA molecule... your welcome (:
Choices.... A: a single circular DNA molecule B: a single linear DNA Molecule C: a pair of linear DNA Molecules joined in the center D: a pair of homologous circular DNA molecules Answer B
Chromosomes consist of DNA. DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribo-nucleic acid. Most Prokaryotes have only one ring-shaped chromosome.
a single linear DNA Molecule
This most significant thing that a prokaryotic cell lacks is a nucleus.
Eukaryotes most likely evolved from prokaryotes.
Bacteria are the most common prokaryotes, closely followed by fungi.
Chromosomes are the name given to the discrete pieces of DNA in a cell that are copied as a unit before a cell divides. All genes are encoded in DNA so the chromosomes are the volumes in the library of an organism that is called its genome. The genome always fits into a single cell. In bacteria a chromosome can consists of a single simple loop of DNA. In plant and animal cells the chromosomes are much longer pieces of DNA that are packaged up by being wound around special proteins called histones. Another thing is that in most cells chromosomes occur in pairs. That is because you got one from your mother and one from your father. There is a lot more to say about chromosomes but their basic function is to store the DNA in a way that its genes can be accessed or read and all of the genes copied when a cell divides
Prokaryotes reproduce using asexual reproduction. All prokaryotes have cytoskeletons but lack a membrane around their nucleus. The 4 most common shapes for a prokaryotes cell is cocci, bacilli, spirochete, and vibrio.
Eukaryotic chromosomes consist of a DNA-protein complex that is organized in a compact manner which permits the large amount of DNA to be stored in the nucleus of the cell. The Chromatin and Nucleosome are two of the most important parts.
Replication in prokaryotes differs from replication in eukaryotes for prokaryotic chromosomes have a single origin of replication, whereas eukaryotic chromosomes have many. Eukaryotes and prokaryotes for replication double stranded DNA, four kinds of dNTPS, primers, and origins.
This most significant thing that a prokaryotic cell lacks is a nucleus.
Histones are the most abundant proteins found in chromosomes.
Bacteria are the most common type of Prokaryotes.
Eukaryotes most likely evolved from prokaryotes.
Chromosomes are rod-shaped structures made of coiled DNA and proteins. They carry genetic information and are found in the nucleus of most living cells.
The nucleus contains nearly all the cell's DNA. * In the nucleus are chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of one (or, after replication, two) molecule of DNA, with proteins, most of which are histones, along its length. One region of the nucleus is the nucleolus, in which most of the genes for synthesizing ribosomal RNA are found.
Yes, most prokaryotes have cell walls.

Tangled strands of DNA are in Prokaryotic cells. This is because the DNA is free floating. The proteins are most likely tangled in the protein molecules.
