Explain two ways mitochondria may be involved with aging?
Aging has been linked to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage in two ways. Mitochondrial DNA provides energy to the cells, when it gets damaged, it will not provide the energy that is needed to function properly, and then the host will get sick. Damaged mitochondrial DNA also plays a role in genetic diseases, it is similar to damaged mitochondrial DNA seen in older humans, but only the damage presents itself much sooner.
How much mitochondrial DNA do humans inherit from their fathers?
None, mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother.
What does chloroplast DNA resemble?
It resembles mitochondrial DNA
Where is DNA found in the eukryote cell?
There are two kinds of DNA in a eukaryotic cell, nuclear and mitochondrial. Nuclear is found in the nucleus and mitochondrial is found in the mitochondria. However, not as many people know about mitochondrial DNA and the only time it is ever refered to is when you are tracking the mother's side of a family with DNA. So for the most part, DNA is found in the nucleus.Eukaryote DNA is located in the nucleus of the cell.
Where is DNA found in eukaryote?
stop using the computer and look inside your notes!
Where do you get your mitochondrial DNA from?
In most organisms, including humans, the mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother.

When was Mitochondrial DNA - journal - created?
Mitochondrial DNA - journal - was created in 1980.
Who shares your mitochondrial DNA?
Mitochondrial DNA comes from the mother, so the mother's maternal line and all her children share the same mitochondrial DNA.
What does mitochondrial DNA code for?
Mitochondrial DNA codes for 13 mitochondrial proteins, 16S and 12S rRNA and 22 tRNAs
How much mitochondrial DNA do humans inherit from their fathers?
None, mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother.
How does the inheritance of mitochondrial DNA different found in the nucleus of cells?
Mitochondrial dna is inherited solely from the mother.
Which is larger Human mitochondrial DNA or yeast mitochondrial DNA?
Yeast's is (~78kb), while human's is about 17kb
What does chloroplast DNA resemble?
It resembles mitochondrial DNA
Mitochondrial DNA is replicated independently from nuclear DNA?
Yes

Is it true that soda can alter DNA test?
Drinking soda will not alter your DNA on a test that tests chromosomes, such as DNA tests that test the risk of your offspring having certain inherited diseases. Sodium benzoate, an additive that studies have linked to mitochondrial DNA damage related to cirrhosis of the liver, is no longer used in most sodas.
