DNA is what tells the cell how to act. DNA is the brain and genetic makeup of the cell. This is true for all cells and not just eukaryotes.

∙ 9y agoThe main function of DNA in a Eukaryotic cell is to tell the cell what its job is to perform. It helps to tell the cell what it should be doing and what it should be making.

Is the DNA of a eukaryotic cell double stranded?
Yes, as organisms, eukaryotes contain DNA.
How is the DNA in prokaryotes different from from the DNA in a eukaryotes?
dna in eukaryotes is located in the nucleus
What are the 2 main differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes: * single-cellular * do not have membrane-bound organelles (such as mitochondria or chloroplasts) * transcription and translation of DNA can occur simultaneously due to the fact that there is no nuclear membrane Eukaryotes: * can be multi-cellular * contain membrane-bound organelles
Do fungi have in common with plants?
They are eukaryotes, multicellular, have nuclei, and have cell walls. Their cells have nuclei that contain DNA --- nova net
Do protozoa contain DNA?
Yes,as eukaryotes they have several organelles which includes at least one nucleus which contains most of the cell's DNA
Where is DNA contain in a cell?
in prokaryotes, everywhere in the cellin eukaryotes, in the nucleus
Is the DNA of a eukaryotic cell double stranded?
Yes, as organisms, eukaryotes contain DNA.
Do eukaryotes have DNA?
Yes, eukaryotes have DNA.
How is the DNA in prokaryotes different from from the DNA in a eukaryotes?
dna in eukaryotes is located in the nucleus
What 2 characteristics do all eukaryotes share?
Eukaryotes contain Nuclei and membrane bound organelles and they're DNA is found in a Nucleus, away from the rest of the cell
Do mitochondria contain DNA in eukaryotic cells?
Generally,many have mitochondria.But some like mammalia red blood cells lack.
How is the DNA in a prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukaryotes?
DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually circular while DNA in eukaryotes is usually linear. DNA in prokaryotes usually has fewer portions that dont code for something while eukaryotes usually have quite a bit of DNA sections that dont code for anything. The number of actual base pairs (the units that makeup DNA) that makeup eukaryotes is usually quite a bit more than the number in prokaryotic DNA.
Do cells contain DNA?
The Dna in prokaryotic Cells floats in the Cytoplasm as a single circular Chromosome. Yes, all Prokaryotes (bacteria and archea and others) and Eukaryotes (e.g Insect, Animal, and Plant Cells) contain Dna in the Form of Chromosomes; without Dna there will be no reproduction.
What are the 2 main differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes: * single-cellular * do not have membrane-bound organelles (such as mitochondria or chloroplasts) * transcription and translation of DNA can occur simultaneously due to the fact that there is no nuclear membrane Eukaryotes: * can be multi-cellular * contain membrane-bound organelles

Yes,as eukaryotes they have several organelles which includes at least one nucleus which contains most of the cell's DNA
Durning cell division what structures do the DNA of eukaryotes bunch into?
During cell division the structures that the DNA of eukaryotes bunch into are the chromosomes.chromosomes
