What is the genetic material in eukaryotes?

The nucleus holds the cells genetic material in eukaryotes. The genome of eukaryotes is sequestered to a membrane bound organelle called the nucleus. The nucleus is the site of replication and transcription.

Large structure that contains the cell's genetic material?

The nucleus of the cell encapsulates the genetic material, DNA in chromosomes.(Mitochondria, plasmids, chloroplasts also contain genetic material but that is not the main example.)


How is the genetic material in a bacterial cell carried?

Bacteria are prokaryotes, which means that they do not have a nucleus (unlike eukaryotes, which do). Instead, their genetic material is contained freely in the cytoplasm of the cell; it is not bound inside a membrane.

DNA is your genetic material.


Where in the nucleus is the genetic material found?

Genetic material, composed of DNA that is packaged into string-like structures called chromatin, makes up a region called the nucleolus, which is inside the nucleus of a cell.In eukaryotes, the genetic material is found within the nucleus of the cell in a form of chromatins. In prokaryotes, the genetic material is suspended in a region known as nucleoid and also contains circular DNA called plasmids.


The genetic material of prokaryotes is?

The genetic material of a cell is actually the DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) molecule. In some types of cells this genetic material is packaged alongwith many other chemicals in the form of long thread-like structures called chromosomes and enclosed in a membrane-lined struture. This spherical structure is called nucleus and such cells are called eukaryotes. In other types of cells the genetic material is not enclosed in a nucleus but rather lies exposed to the cytoplasm of the cell. These are the prokaryotic cells of which bacteria are the prime examples. The cells of most higher forms of life (plants and animals) are eukaryotes.
