Solution

The correct option is C Double stranded round
Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures . Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome which is a piece of circular, double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called as the nucleoid. So, prokaryotic DNA is double stranded DNA.
So, the correct answer is option A.
