Ques. 1AIPMT 2002

In bacteria, plasmid is

  1. extra chromosomal material
  2. main DNA
  3. non functional DNA
  4. repetitive gene.

Answer

(1) extra chromosomal material

Solution

As per NCERT, in addition to the genomic DNA (single circular chromosome), many bacteria have small circular DNA outside the genomic DNA called plasmids.

⇒ Plasmids confer certain unique characters, e.g. resistance to antibiotics, and are used as vectors in genetic engineering.

∴ Plasmid is extra chromosomal material.
