Solution

The correct option is B Genetic code
The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded within genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) is translated into proteins by living cells. It is present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Prokayotes lacks membrane bounded organelles like endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. They do not have DNA complexed with histones.
So, the correct answer is option D.
