WHAT A QUESTION LOOKS LIKE
"Where is the genetic material found in a prokaryotic cell such as a bacterium?"
Pick one of four answers, then read why:
"Prokaryotes have no nucleus, so their single circular DNA loop sits free in the cytoplasm. A membrane-bound nucleus and mitochondria are eukaryotic features, and DNA is never stored in the cell wall."
Every question has an explanation like this, and this one is in the free download.
