Are nucleic acids found in living things?
Yes, in the DNA
What is the location of Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid?
DNA is found in the nucleus of cells.
What is the defintion of chromosome?
A chromosome is a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells. Genetic information in the form of genes are carried by chromosomes.
Where are nucleic acid found in your body?
In the nucleus of your cells (as DNA) and in the ribosomes (as RNA)
Which macromolecule can be found in the nucleus of your cells?
DNA and RNA which are both nucleic acids
Cells with no nuclei are found where?
Red blood cells eject their nuclei in their development and are found in the blood stream.
Why is nucleic acids found in all foods?
The food we eat comes from living things. All living things are composed of cells which contain the nucleic acids DNA and RNA to control the cell's activities by controlling protein synthesis.
Are nucleaus found in animal or plant cells?
Nuclei are found in both plant and animal cells.
Which are the four abundant elements in living cells?
carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogenAlthough all of these elements are found in living cells, the most abundant are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (for carbohydrates and lipids) and nitrogen (for proteins and nucleic acids).
What contains ribose RNA or DNA?
Cells in living organisms, including bacteria, contain DNA.
What is a cromizones?
A chromosome is a thread like structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of living cells. It carries genetic information in the form of genes.
What elements in nucleic acid made up of?
A nucleic acid is a complex organic substance which is present in all living cells, such as DNA or RNA. The elements found in nucleic acids are: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus.
Are nucleic acids found in living things?
Yes, in the DNA
What is the location of Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid?
DNA is found in the nucleus of cells.
Why are karyo types taken from white blood cells instead of red blood cells?
Because your white blood cells have nuclei - which is where the chromosomes are found. Mature red blood cells do not have nuclei.
What is the defintion of chromosome?
A chromosome is a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells. Genetic information in the form of genes are carried by chromosomes.
What acids are nucleic acids?
Nucleic acids carry the genetic codes that determine whether an organism is a bacterium, a tree, a mouse, or a man, and whether a cell is a nerve cell or a muscle cell. So basically nucleic acids carry the genetic codes of LIFE!Or very large organic molecules made up of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.DNA, RNADeoxyribonucleic acid, Ribonucleic acid, respectively.
