Solution

The correct option is C DNA and no histone
Bacterial genomes are generally smaller and less variant in size between species when compared with genomes of animals and single cell eukaryotes. Bacterial genomes can range in size anywhere from 139 kbp to 13,000 kbp. Bacterial genome contains DNA but no histone proteins which helps in binding DNA molecules.
