Where is the chromosome's located?
In a human cell the chromosomes are found in the nucleus. In bacteria and other prokaryotic cells the chromosomes are found floating freely in the cytoplasm.
What is the definition of the word freely?
The definition of the word freely is to not be controlled by another. The word freely could also mean for something to be done loosely. Freely would mean loosely if John was typing freely.
In what part of the cell is chromosome 7 found?
That depends entirely on the species.First of all, chromosomal arrangements are different per species. Bananas have an entirely different set of chromosomes than us apes. We both have a chromosome numbered 'chromosome 7', but they're different chromosomes (although we do share many of the same genes).As to the part of the cell where chromosomes may be found; that too differs from one organism to the other. Humans, bananas, spiders and algae all belong to the domain of Eukaryota, which is characterized by the fact that its genetic material is confined to the cell nucleus, wrapped in an internal membrane. In bacteria and archaea, part of the domain of Prokaryota, the chromosomes (or chromosome: archaea often have one single circular chromosome) float freely in the cell.
What part of the cell holds genetic information?
The nucleus.
What kinds of molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane?
Water molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane.
Where chromosomes are in a cell?
Chromosomes are found in the nucleus of animal cells (eukaryotes). In bacteria and archaebacteria, they float freely in the organism.
Where can DNA be found in prokaryotic cells?
DNA is found inside prokaryotic cells freely floating in the cytoplasm. It is in long strands bundled in the cell.
Where is the chromosome's located?
In a human cell the chromosomes are found in the nucleus. In bacteria and other prokaryotic cells the chromosomes are found floating freely in the cytoplasm.
Human cell contains how many chromosomes?
Every single cell, regardless of being human or not, contains chromosomes, but only when dividing or reproducing. It cells' normal state, their DNA is not wound up in chromosomes, but freely floating around the nucleus.
Is DNA found inside prokaryotic cells?
DNA is found inside prokaryotic cells freely floating in the cytoplasm. It is in long strands bundled in the cell.
Where is DNA found in the cell in Prokaryotes?
DNA is found inside prokaryotic cells freely floating in the cytoplasm. It is in long strands bundled in the cell.
How does the structure of a eukaryotic chromosome during mitosis differ from its structure during the rest of the cell cycle?
During cell division, chromosomes are condensed. They coil and supercoil, becoming thousands of times shorter and much fatter, so that they are visible under a light microscope.Being condensed, the chromosomes move freely through the cell during metaphase and anaphase without tangling.Much of prophase is taken up with this condensation, and much of telophase with its opposite: extension.During interphase, chromosomes need to expose sequences of nucleotides as templates for nucleic acid synthesis (transcription and replication). The chromosomes therefore have to be fully uncoiled (extended).
How is the genetic material in a bacterial cell carried?
Bacteria are prokaryotes, which means that they do not have a nucleus (unlike eukaryotes, which do). Instead, their genetic material is contained freely in the cytoplasm of the cell; it is not bound inside a membrane.
What is inside the bacterium below is a small circular piece of DNA called?
Chromosomes unlike our cell they roam freely in the cytoplasm
What occures when 2 strands unzip and the nitrogen bases pair with different nitrogen bases?
This is the process of DNA replication. A DNA strand in the nucleus of a cell, starts off by being "unzipped" by helicase (an enzyme). Then another enzyme, DNA polymerase matches the nitrogen bases (which are freely floating in the nucleus), of each half with their matches, this forms two identical strands, of DNA.
How is Egypt's government organized?
A the moment it is difficult to know....Egypt is undergoing political reform and the final form of government to come out of this reform has not yet been finalised. The world is hoping that it will be basically democratic and something that the people of Egypt decide for themselves freely and fairly.
What is the comparative and superlative form of freely?
more freely, most freely
