Plasmids are sections of DNA that are independent of the main chromosome found in prokaryotes. It does not have any proteins other than the ones associated with replication of the plasmid.
When plasmids are used to produce a desired protein, the gene encoding for the protein is inserted into the plasmid. The plasmid is then introduced into a host organism, such as bacteria, which then replicate the plasmid and express the protein. This allows for large-scale production of the desired protein.
Plasmids are circles of DNA. These have genes that can be transferred from one bacteria that has it to another. These genes can code for a protein that one cell normally doesn't code for. This done by a process called bacterial conjugation.
Due to the fact that the prime [modern day engineered] purpose of plasmids are to transfer Dna, and considering the Rate that we are producing transgenic creatures using plasmids - we have got to go with 'True'.
No, not all microbes have plasmids. Plasmids are small, circular pieces of DNA that are separate from the microbial genome. While plasmids are common in many bacteria, they are not present in all microbes.

Plasmids.
Plasmids are cloned and start producing protein .
Plasmids are autonomous DNA molecules of varying size which are localized within the cytoplasm of bacteria. There are two kinds:virulence plasmids = determines the virulence factors of the bacteriaresistance plasmids (R-plasmids) = determines the bacteria's resistance to anti-infective agents

No, it's vise versa. Plasmids are used in and by the prokaryotes.
No, eukaryotes typically do not possess plasmids in their genetic makeup. Plasmids are more commonly found in prokaryotic cells.
No, not all microbes have plasmids. Plasmids are small, circular pieces of DNA that are separate from the microbial genome. While plasmids are common in many bacteria, they are not present in all microbes.
Most plasmids are found in prokaryotic cells, but a few eukaryotic cells also have plasmids. An example of a eukaryote with plasmids is the unicellular yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
