What features are found in both cells and viruses?

Not all cells have organelles; only eukaryotic cells do. Viruses, likewise, are not eukaryotic cells and thus, have no organelles. Viruses are generally very small particles many orders of magnitude smaller than the smallest cell. In short, viruses have no organelles, so your question is nonsensical.


What contains genetic material?

The nucleus


Do viruses have liquid cytoplasm?

Viruses are not cells, and therefore have no cytoplasm.


What are the two types of genetic material found in viruses?

The two kinds of genetic material that can be found in viruses is either going to be RNA or DNA either or you want find both in same virus, but what can happen is (Dogma - DNA to RNA they have an RNA to DNA step this usaully occurs in Retoviruses suh H.I.V..


Where genetic material is found?

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.


What molecule is used to store genetic information?

DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses. So both DNA & RNA are genetic material. DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses.


What role did studying bacterial viruses play in identifying genetic material?

My biology book says: Hershey and Chase's experiment with bacteriophages confirmed Avery's results, convincing many scientists that DNA was the genetic material found in genes- not just in viruses and bacteria, but in all living cells. Hoped this helps :)


Cells are the basic unit of life Viruses differ from cells in many key ways what is a feature of viruses but not cells?

One key feature of viruses that is not found in cells is the lack of a cellular structure or organelles. Viruses are composed of genetic material (DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat, whereas cells have a complex structure with membrane-bound organelles.


Do viruses have organization?

Viruses do contain genetic material and a protein coat, but they lack the cellular structure found in living organisms. They are considered to be organized structures, but they are not considered to be living organisms due to their dependency on host cells for replication.


Do tumor viruses contain genes found in normal cells?

Yes, tumor viruses can contain genes found in normal cells. Some tumor viruses are able to integrate their genetic material into the host cell's genome, which can disrupt normal cellular functions and lead to uncontrolled cell division and tumor formation.


The genetic material of a virus is found in its .?

The genetic material of a virus is found in the capsid.


Is genetic material found in all cells?

Yes, genetic material is found in all cells. It carries the instructions required for the growth, development, and functioning of organisms. In eukaryotic cells, genetic material is located in the cell nucleus.
