Which statement is most likely to apply to a cell that has dna within its cytoplasm?

a) it lacks ribosomes.
b) it has membrane-bound organelles.
c) it is multicellular.
d) it performs all functions for the organism.

Ans.

The DNA is known as genetic material of all living organisms that transmit information from one to another generation, provides instructions for protein synthesis, and other cellular activities.

DNA has the all the instructions for reproduction, growth, and functioning of each cell of an organism. Hence, if an organism's cell has DNA in its cytoplasm, it will perform all the functions for that organism.

Thus, the correct answer is 'option) D.'

The right answer is D) It performs all functions for the organism.

DNA is a long molecule carrying the genetic information of the cell, it is found in the nucleus in eukaryotes, and in the cytoplasm in prokaryote (in this statement, we speak surely of a prokaryotic cell).

DNA is the "chemical code" used to make proteins in our cells (as well as in all animal and plant cells). DNA is all the information needed to the functioning of a living organism.
