Best answer

Correct option (a) membrane bound nucleoproteins embedded in cytoplasm

Explanation:

Eukaryotic (e.g. protistan) genome is organised in the form of the nucleus. It is differentiated into nuclear envelope, chromatin, one or more nucleoli and nucleoplasm. Nuclear DNA is linear, associated with histone proteins. A small quantity of DNA is also found in the plastids and mitochondria. In contrast, prokaryotic (bacterial) DNA is circular and lies freely in the cytoplasm.
