This structure is mitrochondria
In mammals, each small circular, double-stranded mitochondrial (mt) DNA molecule consists of 15,000-17,000 base pairs.
The two strands of mtDNA are differentiated by their nucleotide content with the guanine rich strand referred to as the heavy strand and the cytosine rich strand referred to as the light strand.
