i think they float around in the cytoplasm
Deoxyribonucleic acid in eukaryotic cells and in some prokaryotic cells.
Genetic material is primarily found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells (DNA) and in the cytoplasm of cells within organelles called mitochondria (also DNA). In prokaryotic cells, genetic material is found in the nucleoid region, which is not membrane-bound like a nucleus.
Membrane-enclosed organelles
No it does not, reason being prokaryotes do not contain a nucleus.
Genetic information is found in a prokaryote as DNA but not bound by a membrane. That is what the term prokaryote means. The term actually means "before the nut". The nut in this case is the nucleus.
Prokaryotic cells are characterized by their lack of a centralized nucleus. Eukaryotes possess a nucleus.
A cell without a nucleus is called a prokaryotic cell. These cells are found in organisms like bacteria and archaea. Prokaryotic cells lack a membrane-bound nucleus and their genetic material is found in a region of the cell called the nucleoid.
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain ribosomes, which are responsible for protein synthesis. Additionally, both types of cells have a plasma membrane that controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. DNA, the genetic material of the cell, is also found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Animals and plants have cells that contain a nucleus, which houses the genetic material in the form of chromosomes. The nucleoid region, on the other hand, is a region in prokaryotic cells that contains the genetic material but is not enclosed within a membrane-bound nucleus.
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. Instead, their genetic material is found in a region of the cytoplasm called the nucleoid.
No, prokaryotic cells do not have a well-defined nucleus. Instead, their genetic material is typically found in a region of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not membrane-bound like the nucleus found in eukaryotic cells.
The genetic material in prokaryotic cells is located within a region called the nucleoid. This region is not enclosed by a membrane, unlike the nucleus in eukaryotic cells. It consists of a single circular chromosome that contains the cell's genetic information.
