Difererence between bacterial dna and mitochondrial dna
Answers
➻Bacteria is a prokaryotic unicellular organism.
➻ It lacks membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria, golgi apparatus.
➻In this, the genetic material is not bound by nuclear membrane.
➻Hence, it is called as nucleoid. In this, the genetic material is free, double stranded circular DNA.
➻In a eukaryotic cell, DNA is also present in organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts in addition to the nucleus.
➻The DNA present in organelles resembles prokaryotic DNA.
➻It is circular and devoid of histone proteins unlike the DNA present in nucleus which is linear and is wound around histone protein core.
➻The mitochondrial DNA is a double stranded molecule.
hope it helps you
