Correct Answer - B
(b) Nucleoid or chromatin body or genophore in bacteria occupies 10-20% of cell, is present near the centre of cell. It consists of a single, circular DNA molecule in which all the genes are linked. It is over a thousand times longer than the cell itself and is, therefore, highly folded. It lacks the histone proteins.
