Which kingdom has members with one circular chromosomes?

The kingdom with members that have one circular chromosome is the Monera kingdom, which consists of prokaryotic organisms like bacteria. These organisms typically have a single circular chromosome that contains all their genetic information.


Did organisms from bacteria to plants to humans have 46 chromosomes true or false?

False. Organisms may have varying numbers of chromosomes. For example, humans have 46 chromosomes, while bacteria typically have one circular chromosome. Plants can have different numbers of chromosomes depending on the species.


Are prokaryotic chromosomes linear or circular?

Yes and no. Where Eukaryotes (like people, plants, fungi and ect) have multiple linear chromosomes Bacteria have one circular chromosome.Yes Bacteria have one chromosomeNo Bacteria don't have chromosomes


How many chromosomes does one mitochondrion have and what shape are these chromosomes?

Human Mitochondrial DNA has a mere 16,569 base pairs or approximately 37 genes. It has a circular structure not a chromosome.


In the cells of most organisms where is genetic information contained?

In most organisms, genetic information is contained within the cell's nucleus, where it is organized into structures called chromosomes. These chromosomes are made up of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), which carries the instructions necessary for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of the organism. In some organisms, such as prokaryotes, genetic information is located in the cytoplasm in a simpler, circular form of DNA.

Circular DNA is found in prokaryotic organisms.


One difference between the chromosomes of prokaryotes and those of eukaryotes is that?

prokaryotes have circular chromosomes while eukaryotes have linear chromosomes.


An organisms gametes have double the number of chromosomes found in the organisms body cells.?

No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.


Can chromosomes be seen clearly after G2 phase?

Originally: no because G2 phase is the cell growth My Improved answer (copied and pasted from cha cha): Yes, chromosomes can be seen clearly after the G2 phase. Chromosomes vary widely between different organisms. The DNA molecule may be circular or linear, and can be composed of 10,000 to 1,000,000,000


Do prokaryotes have linear chromosomes, or are they typically found in a different form?

Prokaryotes typically have circular chromosomes, not linear ones.
