B

free nucleic acid aggregates

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) Eukaryotic (e.g. protistan) genome is organised in the form of nucleus. It is differentiated into nuclear envelope, chromatin, one or more nucleoli and nucleoplasm. Nuclear DNA is linear, associated with histone proteins, A small quantity of DNA is also found in the plastids and mitochondria. In contrast, prokaryotic (bacterial) DNA is circular and lies frelly in the cytoplasm.
