The scientist would most likely see **DNA and cell wall**.
Most bacteria do not have a nucleus; instead, their genetic material (DNA) is typically found in a region called the nucleoid. In addition, bacteria have a cell wall that provides structure and protection. Therefore, among the options provided, DNA and cell wall are the most relevant structures for a scientist observing bacteria.
