Which one of the following is present in a bacterial cell?
- 28S rRNA
- 70S ribosome
- Chitinous cell wall
- Histones
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Bacteria possess 70S ribosomes, which are smaller than the 80S ribosomes found in eukaryotes. They lack chitinous cell walls, which are characteristic of fungi, and histones, which are associated with eukaryotic chromatin
