Yes, plant cells contain DNA. They contain it because DNA is necessary to the cells so that they can carry the instructions to carry out life functions and reproduce.

Do flowers have DNA?
Yes, they do, almost all living cells (maybe only one or two exceptions, like red blood cells) contain DNA.
What is an example of a nucleic acid in plants?
Plant cells contain DNA and RNA, just like animal cells.
What do plants cells not contain?
Only the cell nucleus contains DNA; the other parts of the cell do not.
What types of cells contain RNA and DNA?
Genetic cells
Plants have cells that contain the DNA that decides how they take shape and function?
parenchyma or elongates either meristem.
What do fungi have in common with plants?
Fungi are not plants.
Can DNA be found in both plant and animal cells?
Yes, all known living cells contain deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This includes animals, plants, other eukaryotes such as yeasts and amoeba, but also prokaryotes such as bacteria. As for viruses, some contain DNA, others RNA, but they are not generally considered to be cells, or alive.
What would contain prokaryotic cells Bacteria Fungi Plants Animals?
prokaryotic cells does not have nuclear membrane surrounded DNA, a characteristic of only bacterial cells.
What part of the cell contains DNA apart from the nucleus?
The mitochondria contain their own DNA in plants and animals; and chloroplasts contain their own DNA in plants and other photosynthetic organisms. Both of these structures divide (almost like cells) inside the cells.*This is also evidence for the theory of endosymbiosis, in which early cells ate early prokarotic cells (bacteria) and gained new organelles.
How do you plant cells divide DNA if they don't have chromosomes?
Plants are higher level eukaryotic organisms and therefore contain chromosomes.
Do fungi have in common with plants?
They are eukaryotes, multicellular, have nuclei, and have cell walls. Their cells have nuclei that contain DNA --- nova net
Is it true or false that prokaryotic cells contain more DNA than eukaryotic cells?
False. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells both contain DNA, but eukaryotic cells store their DNA in a nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells have their DNA everywhere throughout the cell.
