What is a small circular segment of DNA found in many bacteria but separate from the bacterial chomosome?
The small circular segment of DNA is called plasmid.
Plasmids are circular pieces of DNA that exist in addition to the chromosomal DNA of certain bacteria and yeast?
true...
Circular extra genomic DNA is called?
A circular band of DNA that exists separate of chromosomal DNA is called a plasmid. Plasmids reside within bacteria cells and can replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA.
Is protists DNA linear or circular?
Straight(isn). It's not circular, the DNA is organized in chromosomes like eukaryotes. So circular is not correct, since that applies to things like bacteria and mitochondria.
How many chromosomes does a bacterium have?
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.
What do bacteria cells have heredity wise?
They have DNA as heridity material.They have circular DNA.
Does the mitochondria hold DNA?
Yes,they hold DNA.They have circular DNA like bacteria.
In bacteria genes occur as what?
plasmids...circular strands of DNA
What is a small circular segment of DNA found in many bacteria but separate from the bacterial chomosome?
The small circular segment of DNA is called plasmid.
Where does the chloroplasts come from?
They are thought to be evolved from bacteria. They have 70s ribosomes ,circular DNA like bacteria
Small circular molecules of extra DNA in bacteria are called what?
plasmids
What is a circular segment of DNA often exchanged between bacteria?
prokaryote ?
What do you call a small circular DNA molecule that is located in some prokaryotic cells like bacteria?
Plasmid (main circular DNA molecule) and transposons (smaller DNA loops).
Plasmids are circular pieces of DNA that exist in addition to the chromosomal DNA of certain bacteria and yeast?
true...
Circular extra genomic DNA is called?
A circular band of DNA that exists separate of chromosomal DNA is called a plasmid. Plasmids reside within bacteria cells and can replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA.

What is chloroplast relation in bacteria?
Both have circular DNA. Also have 70s ribosomes
