Does the nucleus carry genetic information called DNA?
yes! the nucleus stores genetic information. every cell in the body contains the same genes,segments of DNA. each type of cell has certain genes turned on, while others are turned off. DNA and RNA acting as intermediary.........
Which chemical is genetic material is made?
it goes through mrs. fern's ass
What is the different between genetic material and genetic information?
DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid which is made up of phosphate, deoxyribose sugar and organic nitrogenous bases. It is a totality of both codons and anticodons. it is the source of genetic information. Genetic information refers to the code or specific information carried by a codon (nucleotide) which can be "transcribed" into a messenger RNA to build a specific protein, enzyme or hormone in the body.
In 1952 hershey and chase used a bacteriophageto determine that genetic material is made of what?
These two isotopes are: phosphorus-32 and sulfur-35.
Many scientists think genetic material was composed of protein because?
Protein was originally thought to be the genetic material because of its complexity, protein is made up 20 different amino acids while DNA only consists of four bases. This was logical as the complexity would account for diversity in organisms. But after more research was done it was realized that DNA was actually the genetic material.
How do you xxplain the main purpose of the genetic material in a cell?
the function of genetic material in a cell is to basically give instructions to the cell. the order of the sequence of the bases found in the DNA code for a certain protein to be made at the ribosomes
How does the nucleus help the cell reproduce?
It contains the genetic structure for the whole cell, therefore meaning it contains the DNA and the genetic structure enabling it to create a gene for the new cell. Please pardon any mistakes made in my explanation.
What is the genetic material in a bacterial cell?
Yes it is located in In a bacterial cell, the genetic material is just floating in the cytoplasm in a region called the necleoid. There are no membranes surrounding it.
What is the large structure that contains the cell's DNA is the?
That is the nucleus. it is made of heredity material made of DNA and it carries on the functions of life.
What did the hershey-chase blender experiment help prove?
The genetic material is made of DNA.
What is the difference between cromatin reticulam and cromosome?
Chromatin refers to the combination of DNA and proteins that make up the genetic material in the cell nucleus. It is a loosely organized structure. Chromosome, on the other hand, is a condensed and tightly coiled structure formed by the packaging of chromatin during cell division. Chromosomes are visible under a microscope and are essential for cell division and the transmission of genetic information.
Where within a cell are catalyst synthesized?
Enzymes are natural catalysts produced by cells, and all enzymes are proteins made in the cytoplasm of the cell by translation of genetic material (mRNA).
Where is a protein coat found and what is it used for?
A protein coat (capsid) is the protein shell of a virus. It surrounds the nucleic acid and is made up of sub units called capsomere. It is used as protection for the genetic material inside the shell and as reactant with the cell wall of a potential host cell allowing the transfer of genetic material into the host cell.
What is a prophage made of?
A prophage is made up of proteins that replicate a virus within a cellular structure. The virus does not disrupt the cellular structure of the bacteria, and waits for the lytic cycle to begin so it can replicate.
What happens to the structure of DNA in your cells prior to cell division?
g1, the cell grows rapidly and carries out its routine functions S, the DNA is copied g2, preperations are made for the nucleus to divide. Hollow protein fibers called microtubules are rearranged
What is genetic material contained in an individual?
nowadays there is a lot of genetic material in people because many of the foods and fruits are genetically made.
Where is DNA held?
it holds the exact genetic instructions to make that organism
