Which of the following is an advantage of the relatively small size of the prokaryotic genome?

Question 4 options:

It allows prokaryotes to reproduce quickly.

It allows for noncoding genetic material.

It allows for more diverse regulation mechanisms.

It allows for increased diversity.

Solution

It allows prokaryotes to reproduce quickly.

Explanation:

Larger genome means greater amount of time spent on DNA replication. But the prokaryotic cells divide quickly which is made possible as a result of smaller genome.
