Question

which of the following statements regarding prokaryotic dna is true? prokaryotic dna is found in a membrane - bound nucleus. prokaryotic dna is identical to eukaryotic dna in structure and composition. prokaryotic dna is similar to the dna of mitochondria and chloroplasts. prokaryotic dna contains large internal segments of non - coding dna called introns.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes lack a membrane - bound nucleus. Their DNA is different from eukaryotic DNA in structure and composition. Eukaryotic DNA has introns, while prokaryotic DNA generally does not. However, prokaryotic DNA is similar to the DNA of mitochondria and chloroplasts as they are all circular, double - stranded DNA and are thought to have an evolutionary relationship through endosymbiosis.

Answer:

Prokaryotic DNA is similar to the DNA of mitochondria and chloroplasts.
