Solution
The correct option is C Basic proteins Bacteria are prokaryotes. They lack membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria and Golgi apparatus. They also lack a true nucleus. Instead, they have nucleoid, genetic material without a nuclear envelope. Histones are basic proteins found in eukaryotic cells. However, these proteins are absent in bacterial cells. However, a bacterial genome is circular DNA, which is acidic in nature. This bacterial DNA is packed by means of RNA and polyamines. The latter behave as basic proteins.
