Best Answer

Closed DNA (circular) is a characteristic of prokaryotes. Circular DNA that is not on the bacterial chromosome are called plasmids.

What is a closed heat pump system?

You might have heard about the open or closed loop system. If it is a closed loop system, then it is referring to the continuous piping loops that are set underground. These loops are to be filled with an anti-freeze-like liquid which is the key to transforming the floor temperature into the geothermal heat pump.


How was a key chain made?

A chain is made by forming loops of metal from a wire to form the links of the chain, the loops are then interlinked and the open ends are welded closed.


What do you call a small circular DNA molecule that is located in some prokaryotic cells like bacteria?

Plasmid (main circular DNA molecule) and transposons (smaller DNA loops).


Do electric field lines always form closed loops?

yes because they start from the positive charge and ends at the negative charge so closed path


How does water go through a closed system?

It does not. Look up the definition. Alot of time when we build a "closed system" is not really a closed system. Close, but not all of the way there. That is why you have make-up water on mechanical closed loops and why you add water to your radiator.


What are the curves and closed loops on a topo map called?

They're called contour lines. They link places of similar elevation.


Do Golgi apparatus have nucleic acid?

No. Most of the DNA in a cell is stored in the nucleus. Sometimes, there are separate loops of DNA loose in a cell called plasmids. In prokaryotic cells the DNA is just loose in the cell, but even then the golgi body is DNA-free.


In what structure does Bacterial DNA resemble human DNA?

That they have both DNA Bacterial DNA is a (closed) circle, those of human is lineair (straight) if you stretch it. Bacterial DNA does not have Proteines, Human DNA has Proteines. Bacteria have also RNA The DNA of bacteria is easy to reach , those of human not.


A contour line that forms a closed loop and has small dashes pointing to the inside of the loop represents what?

Hysteresis loops tell about the magnetic properties of a material. E.g. wider loops indicate that the material is magnetically hard (i.e. it retains magnetisation even if the applied field is removed, permanent magnetics have much wider hysteresis loops)whereas thinner loops represent it to be soft (if the magnetic field is removed, the material doens't show any magentism). This is one advantage of hysteresis loops. further, such loops can identify the grain size of a material and much more. hope it answers your question.
