what is the function of the nucleoid in bacteria
The nucleoid is a region of cytoplasm where the chromosomal DNA is located. It is not a membrane bound nucleus, but simply an area of the cytoplasm where the strands of DNA are found.Most bacteria have a single, circular chromosome that is responsible for replication, although a few species do have two or more.he nucleoid is an irregularly-shaped region within the cell of prokaryotes which has nuclear material without a nuclear membrane and where the genetic material is localized.
