Solution

The correct option is A Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms without membrane-bound organelles. They lack a true nucleus. Instead, they have nucleoid, a genetic material without the nuclear envelope. In prokaryotes, the genetic material is single circular double-stranded DNA without histones. They have a haploid chromosome.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Prokaryotes.'
