What cell structure contains information in the cell function?

Nucleotides of the DNA contain information for different functions of the cell. This information is carried by mRNS, created by transcription of DNA strands.


Is DNA and nucleus related?

NO, because the nucleus actually holds the DNA, so it carried messages to the other organelles (other parts of the cell).


How are characteristics transferred to the next generation?

DNA determines what characteristics the cell would have. When a cell divides, the chromosomes containing DNA are split in half. Half of the DNA from the original cell is carried by each of the resulting cells.


What does a person's unique DNA is carried in?

A person's unique DNA is carried in the nucleus of their cells, specifically within the chromosomes. These chromosomes contain genes made up of DNA that provide instructions for the body's development, functioning, and traits.


Which type of sexual exchange occurs among bacteria in which DNA is carried into a bacterial cell by means of bacteriophage?

Transduction is the type of sexual exchange among bacteria in which DNA is carried into a bacterial cell by means of a bacteriophage virus. The bacteriophage acts as a carrier of genetic material, facilitating the transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another during the infection process.


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 features do all cells?

That depends on what kind of cell it is. If it is a Eukaryotic cell than it will have a nucleus, cell mambrane, and regular organells like the mitochondria. Its DNA is carried in the Nucleus. And prokaryotic cells dont have any of this!


How are hereditary diseases carried?

A hereditary disease is carried because one of the parents has broken DNA (meaning, the DNA is not normal and the loss of one part of the DNA caused the hereditary disease), and that broken DNA is copied to every cell in the body, and when the two sex cells join together, there is broken DNA in one of the sex cells, thereby officially passing the hereditary disease to the next child.


Which structure gives all the instructions needed to direct the growth and function of a particular cell?

The genetic material inside the cell's nucleus, specifically the DNA, contains all the instructions necessary to direct the growth and function of a particular cell. Genes within the DNA provide the information for producing proteins and other molecules that control the cell's activities. These instructions are carried out through processes like transcription and translation.


Why is DNA the boss cell?

DNA is not a cell.


Why is there a deadline for the egg to receive DNA from sperm?

Because the egg cell is carried down the oviduct by little hairs called cilia and the sperm cell has to reach the egg cell before it gets to the uterus (womb).


What kind of information is carried by the chromatin in a cell's nucleus?

Chromatin consists of DNA associated with proteins which forms long strands called chromosomes.
