What is made of genetic material inside a protein coat?
A virus.Some viruses have double-stranded DNA, some have single-stranded. There are also viruses that carry their genetic information in RNA, some double-stranded, some single.
Are viruses prokaryotes?
First off a prokaryotic organism is a thing that has no nucleus that holds it's genetic material. Viruses are prokaryotes. Their genetic material isn't in a nucleus. It has an inner core that holds its genetic material, and the inner core is protected by the virus's protein coat.
What is the structure of a virus cell?
The genetic material DNA, usually.Then there are retroviruses, but they have RNA genetic material, which cells use catalytically, among other uses. And bath types of viruses have protein in common with living cells.
What is the genetic material of life?
2' [two prime] Deoxy [without the oxygen at the 2' carbon position] Ribo [for the ribose sugar that is intercalated between the Phosphate 'discs' of the backbone] Nucleic acid [for the nucleotidic Bases]. Ergo - 2'Dna. All Living Things = yes.
What is the term for the genetic material inside a virus?
The term for .the genetic material inside of a virus is Hereditary. Hereditary is a gene passed from a parent. If you are learning about viruses then you may know that they reprodue by using a living cell. They attack it, inject their DNA/RNA and let the cell do the rest. Viruses are concidered 50% living and 50% non living. Im a person that belives that they are not living. You should know that when a virus has injected the DNA/RNA its still alive and it leaves the cell. once it leaves the cell begins to produce thousands of little viruses. They then begin the prosses all over again.

What is the genetic material that contains characteristics of living organisms?
The DNA molecule is the genetic material of life.
Do all living organisms have genetic material?

Bacterial cells do not have genetic material?
No they don't have genetic material
Do beans have genetic material?

Which characteristic do viruses share with living thing?
They contain genetic material. Although virus' contain genetic material, they can not reproduce without being inside of a host cell. Many scientists question if they can be considered living or not, as this is the only life function they are capable of performing.
Eukarotic cells have genetic material?
All living things have of a genetic material.
Is a T4 bacteriophage virus living or non living?
Bacteriophage viruses are nonliving. They are DNA or RNA encapsulated in a protein coated capsule with recognition sites to bind to specific target sites on bacteria and insert their genetic material for viral replication or to induce changes in the bacterial genetic material.
Are viruses prokaryotes?
First off a prokaryotic organism is a thing that has no nucleus that holds it's genetic material. Viruses are prokaryotes. Their genetic material isn't in a nucleus. It has an inner core that holds its genetic material, and the inner core is protected by the virus's protein coat.
A form of genetic material that invades living cells to reproduce?
Virus
