Answer: Option D.

DNA is usually condensed into a chromosome.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bacterial genome refers to the complete set of DNA or complete set of genetic material of bacteria. Bacteria chromosomes are circular DNA. The chromosomes are packed by histone proteins into a condensed structure called chromatin. The condensed DNA is supercooled.
