Bacteria almost always have multiple copies of a specific gene on their chromosome. Prokaryotic cells usually contain a single chromosome. In eukaryotes, chromosomes often come in pairs, with members of a chromosome pair carrying the same genes.

Answer 1

None of the given answers are correct. ----> FALSE

Eukaryotic organisms usually have a number of chromosomes that is species-specific. ----> TRUE (All the organisms in a given species usually contain the same number of chromosomes, but the chromosome number varies between the species)

Bacteria almost always have multiple copies of a specific gene on their chromosome. --> TRUE (the bacterial gene usually contains the multiple copies of a gene)

Prokaryotic cells usually contain a single chromosome. --> TRUE (prokaryotes does not contain the nucleus, and the genome is usually a single chromosome)

In eukaryotes, chromosomes often come in pairs, with members of a chromosome pair carrying the same genes.---> TRUE (prokaryotes contain the nucleus, which contains the genetic material in the form of several paired chromosomes)
