Solution

The correct option is D Nucleoids
Bacteria are prokaryotes. They are unicellular organisms that lack internal membrane-bound organelles. They do not have a true nucleus. Instead, they have an incipient nucleus called as nucleoid or genophore. Nucleoid is a nuclear material of bacterial cell which is single, circular, double-stranded DNA without a nuclear envelope.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Nucleoids.'
