Answer:
Cytoplasm
Explanation:
In prokaryotes DNA is located directly within the cellular cytoplasm
In the E.coli, that is, a prokaryotic bacterium, the genetic material is found in the cytoplasm.
The genetic material in E.coli:
E.coli is a prokaryotic bacterium, and in all the prokaryotic cells, genetic information is carried on a single circular strand of DNA, which is either present in direct contact with the cytoplasm or is attached to the cell membrane.
In the prokaryotes, no enclosing membrane organelle is present, therefore, no nucleus is found. They comprises a concentration of DNA called nucleoid, which is not encircled by a nuclear membrane. Apart from this, no unique proteins are found attached with the molecule of DNA.
Thus, the correct answer is option A, that is, cytoplasm.
