Answer:

Nucleoid

Step-by-step explanation:

Prokaryotic cells are simple cells that lacks a definite nucleus and some membrane bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleoid region, which is an irregularly-shaped central region of the cell that contains the cell’s genetic information (DNA). Other organelles that can be found in prokaryotic cells include plasma membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm and ribosomes.
