Solution

The correct option is D Double stranded
Nucleic acids are DNA and RNA. DNA is a genetic material which is mainly present in the nucleus of the cell in eukaryotes like mammals. The genetic material is covered by a nuclear membrane. In prokaryotes like bacteria the genetic material lie freely in the cytoplasm. The region where the nucleic acid are present is known as nucleoid. The similarity between bacterial and eukaryotic DNA is that both are double stranded DNA.
So, the correct answer is option C.
