What are the characteristics of DNA?

The characteristics of a living thing are determined by its DNA.

Genes are part of DNA which are responsible for specific characteristics.

one of the characteristics of the ribosome is dna

DNA controls a person's characteristics because it is what passes on the genes and traits of the parents. The genes and traits express the person's characteristics.

The DNA in the nucleus carries the hereditary characteristics. The nucleus is the site of DNA and RNA synthesis in the cell.

chemical characteristics and DNA characteristics

It would be a combination of genetics and learned behavior.

DNA determines what characteristics the cell would have. When a cell divides, the chromosomes containing DNA are split in half. Half of the DNA from the original cell is carried by each of the resulting cells.

Some characteristics of DNA are it is helical and double stranded. DNA also consists of 4 nucleotide bases: adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine. Each of the nucleotides consists of a five carbon sugar called deoxyribose, the D in DNA.

Scientists use Ancestors and DNA to group DNA.

DNA profiling, or Fingerprinting uses identifying characteristics of an individuals.

Through mRNA transcribed on DNA template and carried to the cytoplasm.

DNA replication is : semiconservative, bidirectional, begins at unique sites (origins)

Traits are the genetic characteristics of an individual. The traits are coded from the DNA of the parents and determine physical and behavioral characteristics.

Genetic engineering has devised a technique to split the genetic characteristics in the DNA of a plant seed to implant other DNA(transgenic) to modify the genetic characteristics in a laboratory.

it can cause deafness..........

It could possibly and it couldn't.

We call these characteristics traits. They are encoded in genes located in our DNA.

These characteristics are called traits or hereditary traits; they come from individual DNA.

DNA contains information that determines the characteristics of an organism and directs its cell activities.

I'm going to answer the question 'Are chromosomes responsible FOR inheritING the characterISTICS of an organism?' Hope that's what you meant. Chromosomes aren't responsible as such, chromosomes are bundled up strands of DNA, and the DNA is what's responsible for.... well, it's not really the characteristics, DNA, genes, describe the limits of an organisms characteristics, its GENOTYPE. The genotype plus the organism's environment are responsible for its characteristics, that is its PHENOTYPE.

Some aspects of a person't Personality. We are born with one out of three types of personalities (determined by our DNA) but their are a further 16 personalities which combine different characteristics of the first three and these characteristics are developed through exposure and personal growth, not DNA.

DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded. DNA uses thymine but RNA uses uracil.

The characteristics of a prokaryotic cell are that they do not have any membrane-bound organelles. They also do not have their DNA contained in a nucleus.

DNA strands are known as polynucleotides since they are composed of simpler units called nucleotides.

This chemical is DNA.

by having a specific thing

You think probable to DNA.

Membrane, Cytoplasm, Ribosomes, and DNA

the homeophrangular mocecule

Cell membrane,dna,RNA ,

ancestors and DNA

They carry that organisms DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) supplies the information necessary for cells to reproduce. DNA also determines the physical characteristics of any organism through the genes that DNA contains.

DNA is desoxyribose nucleic acid. DNA carries the genetic code that determines the characteristics of a living thing. Genes are related to DNA because they are short sections of DNA that code for specific proteins.

There are many genes in a piece of DNA. These genes are they way that you get all of your characteristics.

Infuenza Virus Contain Both DNA and RNA. No other Virus show such characteristics.

DNA is made out of four different bases, polynucleotide chains, and sugar-phosphate backbones. Two DNA strands form a double helix that is in a spiral.

THEY HAVE IDENTICAL DNA

Very,the nucleus the DNA

They are called genes. They are found in your DNA.

some characteristics of a virus: - needs a host - can contain DNA or RNA - can have an envelope cell - is an acellular organism

One of the unique characteristics of retrotransposons is that they code for an enzyme that synthesizes DNA using an RNA template.

DNA within the nucleus is responsible for providing the cell with its unique characteristics

The genes found in DNA transfer characteristics from one generation to the next.

DNA holds information about our characteristics like hair colour, eye colour etc that we inherited from our parents and it is passed on to our children

through the genetic code stored your DNA and the process of DNA Replication. You usually inherit similar characteristics to your parents

"Transformation" refers to a change in the heritable characteristics in bacteria that have been incubated with DNA of other bacteria. Some of these incubated bacteria will acquire some of the characteristics of the bacteria from which the DNA was extracted. The DNA enters the incubated bacteria through holes in the cell membrane, and gets incorporated into the bacterial genome.

E. coli and strawberries both contain cells that have DNA, so the DNA can be extracted.

Thousands upon thousands. Because DNA must contain all the characteristics of your being, it must be long.
