How is dna hereditary material?

DNA are the "instructions" for cells which contain all the genetic material. When a cell divides, the DNA inside its nucleus replicates and forms the same DNA strands in the two new cells. Therefore, when cells divide by meiosis to form sex cells, they contain the same codes of DNA as the cell they divided from, giving them hereditary characteristics.


Does a palnt cell have any chromosomes?

Chromosomes are structures made of DNA and proteins (specially histones). They are the genetic material which regulates all the cell activity and contain the hereditary information . They contain the information for protein synthesis and so on. Chromosomes are contained within the nucleus. So any cell which has metabolic activity and has a nuclei contains chromosomes. Since plants are living beings they surely have "working cells" with nuclei and chromosome's. If they didn't have any cells with genetic material they would never be able to grow, reproduce or even live.


Where is the hereditary material stored?

Inside the nucleus in eukaryotes and in a region called the nucleoid in prokaryotes.
