NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020Biological Classification

Solution:

In prokaryotes, the cell membrane is infolded into small projection known as mesosomes. These are infoldings that increase the surface area of the membrane for attachment of respiratory chain complex, helps in DNA replication and separation of replicated DNA, and septa formation during cell division.
