Solution

The correct option is B Polysomes
Polysomes are a collection of ribosomes bound together by messenger RNA and they are translating simultaneously. In case of bacteria, polysomes can be formed while m-RNA is still being transcribed from DNA template and they appear like 'beads on a string'. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
