Question

Bacteria have

• A. Plasmid DNA
• B. RNA
• C. Both (A) \& (B)
• D. None of these

Hint:

Plasmid DNA is extra-chromosomal DNA found in bacteria.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Bacteria contain plasmid DNA, which is a small circular DNA molecule independent of their chromosomal DNA. While bacteria do have RNA as part of their cellular machinery, the genetic material specifically referred to is plasmid DNA.
- RNA is not the primary genetic material but plays a role in protein synthesis.
- Option (C) is incorrect as RNA is not a genetic material in bacteria but a product.
- Option (D) is incorrect.
