I am really not sure about the causality here - that is whether the following are answers to your question, or are merely results of the circular DNA structure.
One possible answer is that this way the DNA has no telomere sequence and therefore the Haylfick limit does not apply - they can keep on dividing indefinitely.
Also, the rolling cirlce replication of the DNA (which can only occur in a circular molecule) is a simpler mechanism than in eukaryotes.
Sexual processes of bacteria, such as conjugation, also depend on the rolling-cirlce, mentioned above.
What else can I help you with?
What is a circular segment of DNA often exchanged between bacteria?
prokaryote ?
How a eukaryotes stores DNA to how prokaryotes stores DNA?
the DNA of a prokaryote is a long ,circular molecule.the DNA pf a eukaryote ,the nucleus holds the cell's DNA.
How is the DNA is a prokaryote different from the DNA in the eukaryote?
DNA in prokaryotes is circular and in the cell itself, while the DNA of eukaryotes is coiled and in the nucleus (organelle) of the cell.
How is the DNA in prokaryote different from the DNA from the eukaryote?
DNA in prokaryotes is circular and in the cell itself, while the DNA of eukaryotes is coiled and in the nucleus (organelle) of the cell.
What does a prokaryotes cell contain with a single bit of dna?
A prokaryote contains a single circular chromosome in its cytoplasm.
How many chromosomes found in the cytoplasm of prokaryote cell DNA?
One circular main chromosome and, perhaps, a number ( 1 to 3 ) of circular plasmids.
What is the different between prokaryote and eurkaryote DNA?
Prokaryotes have a singluar circular chromosome and eukaryotes have multiple long strands.
If a cell only has single large DNA molecule would it be a prokaryote or a eukaryote?
Prokaryote mostly contain a single large DNA molecule (circular chromosome) while eukaryotes contain multiple linear chromosomes. Most prokaryote are haploid that means they contain only one copy of each gene.
How is DNA in a prokaryote different from the DNA in a eurkaryotes?
In prokaryotes, the DNA is circular and not contained in a membrane. In eukaryotic cells, the DNA is in the form of chromatin and reproduces differently, and it is found inside the nucleus (and mitochondria/chloroplasts).
How is DNA in a prokaryote different from DNA in a eukaryote?
DNA in a prokaryote is typically a single circular chromosome located in the nucleoid region, whereas DNA in a eukaryote is organized into multiple linear chromosomes within a membrane-bound nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA lacks histone proteins and introns, while eukaryotic DNA is associated with histones and contains introns that are removed during RNA processing. Additionally, prokaryotic DNA is not compartmentalized within a nucleus and lacks complex regulatory elements found in eukaryotic DNA.
Where is DNA in prokaryote?
in the cytoplasm
What is the structure of a prokaryotic cell DNA?
A single large ring chromosome and many tiny ring plasmids.
