It is filled with cell sap to keep the cell turgid (swollen with water). 8 of 11 What does the chromosomal DNA do? Carries most of the genetic material. 9 of 11 What does the plasmid DNA do? Forms small loop and carries extra genetic information. 10 of 11 What does the flagellum do? This helps the bacteria to move itself along. 11 of 11
