उत्तर
There are numerous different bacterial chromosomes, with replication occurring in each at the same time.
Explanation:
The vast majority of prokaryotes, such as bacteria like E. coli, possess only a single circular chromosome. Unlike eukaryotes, which have multiple linear chromosomes that replicate simultaneously, prokaryotic cells typically carry their entire genetic blueprint on a single DNA molecule.
