Prokaryotes have one chromosome consisting of a circular DNA moi only have one e
not present in pairsbecause prokaryotes only have one parent whichdivides bybinary
fission
some prokaryotes have plasmids but eukaryotes don't
plasmid small loops of DNA that r extra copies of some of the genetic material
of the organism these small circularDNAmoi arenot connected to the main
bacterial chromosome they replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA

Plasmid DNA is not required by the cell undernormal circumstances but itmayhelpthe
cell to adapt to unusual circumstances
