Bacteria do not have chromosomes. They have a small circular piece of DNA within the cell. The chromosome of a bacterium is the single molecule of circular DNA. It is also called as nucleoid.
In a bacterium, DNA is located in the nucleoid region, which is not enclosed by a membrane. The DNA in bacteria is circular and contains all the genetic information needed for the bacterium's growth and function.
Inside the bacterium is a small circular piece of DNA called a plasmid. Plasmids can carry extra genes that provide advantages to the bacterium, such as antibiotic resistance. They can replicate independently from the bacterium's chromosomal DNA.
Elephants have a total of 56 chromosomes. This includes 2 sex chromosomes and 54 autosomes.
An ape typically has 48 chromosomes.
Humans have a total of 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.
