The major difference between bacterial chromosomes and eukaryotic chromosomes is that bacteria have a single circular chromosome whereas eukaryotes have several linear chromosomes.

Eukaryotic chromosomes are present within the nucleus while prokaryotic chromosomes are found in the nucleoid (a region of the cytoplasm). The nucleoid does not have a membrane.

In eukaryotic chromosomes, DNA is wrapped around histone proteins, which is further compacted by supercoiling and folding. However, in prokaryotic chromosomes, DNA is supercoiled and held together by nucleoid-associated proteins.

Prokaryotic chromosome is very simple in comparison to the eukaryotic one. Prokaryotic chromosome lack telomeres and centromeres sequences which is found in the eukaryotic chromosomes.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

3/16

Explanation:

Given,

Black coat color is dominant over brown coat color.

Long mane is dominant over short mane.

BBLL X bbll =

F1: BbLl = Entire progeny has black color and long mane

BbLl progeny will produce BL, Bl, bL and bl gametes. When they interbreed, the resultant F2 progeny will be in 9:3:3:1 dihybrid ratio. Hence in F2,

BBLL : BbLL : bbLl : bbll = 9 : 3 : 3 : 1

3/16 progeny will have bbLl genotype hence 3/16 progeny will have brown, long mane.

Within a protein, multiple amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, thereby forming a long chain. So, if these amino acids are in anyway related to each other, there can be some similar resemblance between the beetles.
