  • Genetic information in prokaryotic cells is carried on a single circular piece of DNA which is attached to the cell membrane and in direct contact with the cytoplasm.There are no special proteins associated with this DNA molecule. Plasmids. Some prokaryotes also carry smaller circles of DNA called plasmids.

  • In addition, prokaryotes have plasmids, which are smaller pieces of circular DNA that can replicate separately from prokaryotic genomic DNA.

Answer:

In prokaryotic cells, the DNA is often settled in a central part of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not enclosed in a nuclear membrane. Nuclear DNA is organized into linear molecules called chromosomes. The size and number of chromosomes vary significantly between species.
