DNA


Is prokaryotic DNA linear or circular in structure?

Prokaryotic DNA is typically circular in structure.


In a eukaryotic cell what is one of the structures in the nucleus that is made up of DNA and protein in a prokaryotic cell is the main ring of DNA?

In a eukaryotic cell, the structure made up of DNA and proteins in the nucleus is the chromosome. In prokaryotic cells, the main ring of DNA is called the nucleoid, which lacks a membrane-bound nucleus.


Is DNA a prokaryotic?

DNA is not a cell so therefore it cannot be categorized into prokaryotic or eukaryotic.


What is a prokaryotic cell found in?

A prokaryotic cell has DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane an cytoplasm.


What cell structure contains the genetic material (DNA)?

genetic material is located in the nucleus for eukaryotic cells and in a "naked loop of DNA" in prokaryotic cells


What is a cell lacking nucleus?

A cell lacking a nucleus is called a prokaryotic cell. Prokaryotic cells are simpler in structure compared to eukaryotic cells and are typically found in bacteria and archaea. They do not have a membrane-bound nucleus to house their genetic material, and instead, their DNA is found freely floating in the cytoplasm.


Cell that dose not have a nucleus?

A cell that does not have a nucleus is called a prokaryotic cell. Prokaryotic cells are typically simpler in structure compared to eukaryotic cells, which have a true nucleus that houses the cell's genetic material. Examples of organisms with prokaryotic cells include bacteria and archaea.


Is easier to extract DNA from prokaryotic than eukaryotic cells?

I would say so. In a eukaryotic cell,the DNA is surrounded by the nuclear membrane, which makes it harder. In a prokaryotic cell, the DNA is simply suspended in nucleoid region, which makes locating and extracting far easier. BUT, realize that most prokaryotic cells are surrounded by a cell wall, which can be tough to get through.


Is DNA in a prokaryotic cell?

Yes, DNA is present in prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome that contains the genetic information of the cell. This DNA is located in the nucleoid region of the cell.


What is the difference eukaryotic cell and prokaryotic cell?

Prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA carry genetic information for the development, functioning and reproduction of prokaryotes and eukaryotes respectively. Eukaryotes consist of membranebound nucleus whereas prokaryotes lack a membrane­bound nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA is double­stranded and circular. But, eukaryotic DNA is double­strand and linear. The amount of DNA in prokaryotic cells is much less than the amount of DNA in eukaryotic cells. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA undergo replication by the enzyme DNA polymerase. The main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA is that prokaryotic DNA is found in the cytoplasm whereas eukaryotic DNA is packed into the nucleus of the cell.


Name two differences between the heredity material of a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell?

Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome, while eukaryotic cells have multiple linear chromosomes. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and their DNA is not associated with histone proteins, whereas eukaryotic cells have a nucleus where their DNA is stored and packaged with histone proteins.
