Plasmids are not exclusively single-stranded extrachromosomal DNA. Plasmids can exist as both single-stranded and double-stranded molecules.

Therefore, the correct answer is  Both A and R are false. Plasmids can be either single-stranded or double-stranded, and they are not exclusively possessed by eukaryotic cells. Plasmids are commonly found in various organisms, including bacteria (prokaryotes) and yeast (eukaryotes). Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
