A sinlge drop of blood or a strand of your hair is more tha enough to get your genetic code.
All of it
not much, a cell membrane and genetic material (in prokaryotic cells the genetic material is free floating)
hhh
Half.
Each parent contributes half of their genetic material to create a new organism. This genetic material is combined during fertilization to form a unique set of genes for the offspring, containing a mix of traits from both parents.
Fraternal twins share about 50% of their genetic material, just like any other siblings. They develop from two separate eggs fertilized by two different sperm.
during sporulation ( spore formation from vegetative cell) genetic material (DNA) is degraded....it doesnt carry "genetic material" as awhole but carries all of its components- bases, sugars, phosphates...during or before germination ( spore to new organism) polymerization of these components' united structure ( nucleotide) occurs.
The hereditary material of viruses vary. Some viruses have DNA and some RNA. Viruses with RNA change, for example the flu, that's why we get a shot every year. The viruses with DNA don't change so that's why you need only one shot.
Each daughter cell receives an equal amount of the parent's nuclear material during cell division. The genetic material is copied and distributed evenly between the two daughter cells to ensure genetic continuity.
Viruses attach specific cells and inject genetic material. There are viruses called bacteriophages that infect bacteria be injecting their genetic material into the bacterial host and invading their protein machinery. With animal viruses that infect animal cells (much larger than bacteria), the virus either injects genetic material OR gets into the cell whole before it begins to unleash its pathogenic effects
1. A virus attaches to a bacterium. 2. The virus injects its genetic material. 3. The genetic material of the virus combines with the bacterium's genetic material. 4. The virus's genetic material detaches from the bacterium's genetic material and the bacterium produces the virus's proteins and genetic material. 5. New viruses assemble. 6. The bacterium bursts open, releasing new viruses.
Much of the material in the nucleus is used for storing genetic information in the form of DNA. This DNA contains the instructions for building and maintaining an organism.
