What organelle contains DNA inside it and controls the cell?
In eukaryotic cells it is the nucleus that contains DNA. In prokaryotes it floats around in the cytoplasm
What contains the DNA in a cell?
In eukaryotic cells, the DNA is contained in the cell's nucleus as chromatin, but in prokaryotic cells, which lack a nucleus, the DNA simply floats as chromatin in the cytoplasm.
What type of cell has the DNA floating in the cell?
Cells in which the DNA floats freely in the cytoplasm and is not encoles in anucleus are called prokaryotic cells eg bacteria.
How is the DNA in prokaryotes different form the DNA in eukaryotes?
DNA in a eukaryote is surrounded by a nuclear membrane, hence forming a distinct nucleus whereas the DNA in a prokaryote is not bounded by a nuclear membrane and floats freely in the cytoplasm.
What is the structure that floats in the cytoplasm?
All the living form of the cell floats in cytoplasm jointly temed as protoplasm
Do prokaryotic Cells contain Dna?
The Dna in prokaryotic Cells floats in the Cytoplasm as a single circular Chromosome. Yes, all Prokaryotes (bacteria and archea and others) and Eukaryotes (e.g Insect, Animal, and Plant Cells) contain Dna in the Form of Chromosomes; without Dna there will be no reproduction.
Where is DNA grouped in bacteria?
Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, and therefore do not have a nucleus. The DNA found within bacteria is located in the cytoplasm - in an area called the nucleoid. It is not surrounded by a membrane like in eukaryotic cells.
Which organelle contains DNA and uses it to control the rest of the cells?
In eukaryotic cells it is the nucleus that contains DNA. In prokaryotes it floats around in the cytoplasm
What is a cell that does not have nucleus?
Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus. Instead, their DNA floats around in a "nuclear region" in the cytoplasm.
Do cells contain DNA?
The Dna in prokaryotic Cells floats in the Cytoplasm as a single circular Chromosome. Yes, all Prokaryotes (bacteria and archea and others) and Eukaryotes (e.g Insect, Animal, and Plant Cells) contain Dna in the Form of Chromosomes; without Dna there will be no reproduction.
What is prokaryotic DNA called?
Within prokaryotes, the DNA simply exists as a loop contained only by the cell membrane. Prokaryotes are very simple; they've DNA, ribosomes, all immersed in cytoplasm; a cell membrane and cell wall(s) to keep it in. They don't have the structural complexity of a distinct cell nucleus.
Does cytoplasm have its own DNA?
No. The DNA for cytoplasm is in the nucleus of the cell. BUT Some of the organelles in the cell have their own DNA. (Mitochondria are the best example it has a complete set of DNA)
