Mitochondria, (singular Mitochondrion) are found in eukaryotic cells. (Amoeba, and cells which make up larger organisms such as plants and animals). They are like a cell's batteries and generate the chemical adenonsine triphosphate (ATP) which is the primary chemical we use to get energy in the body (breaking the bond which holds it together, releases energy).

What does mitochondrial DNA code for?
Mitochondrial DNA codes for 13 mitochondrial proteins, 16S and 12S rRNA and 22 tRNAs
Where are the 2 places you will find DNA in a cell?
It is found in the nucleus. the nucleus is the brain of the cell
What type of DNA is easiest to collect?
Mitochondrial DNA, because is found in small structures outside the nucleus of a cell and is inherited from the biological mother.
How big is the mitochondrial DNA?
as big as it wants to be
How does the inheritance of mitochondrial DNA different found in the nucleus of cells?
Mitochondrial dna is inherited solely from the mother.
Where is DNA found in the eukryote cell?
There are two kinds of DNA in a eukaryotic cell, nuclear and mitochondrial. Nuclear is found in the nucleus and mitochondrial is found in the mitochondria. However, not as many people know about mitochondrial DNA and the only time it is ever refered to is when you are tracking the mother's side of a family with DNA. So for the most part, DNA is found in the nucleus.Eukaryote DNA is located in the nucleus of the cell.
What do chloroplasts and mitochondrial have that orgenelle lack?
70s ribosomes are found. Circular DNA can be found
Where is DNA found in eukaryote?
stop using the computer and look inside your notes!
what is Organelles found in?
DNA is mainly found in the nucleus of the cell. Of course, it can also be found in other organelles such as the mitochondria (therefore it is called mitochondrial DNA).
When was Mitochondrial DNA - journal - created?
Mitochondrial DNA - journal - was created in 1980.
Who shares your mitochondrial DNA?
Mitochondrial DNA comes from the mother, so the mother's maternal line and all her children share the same mitochondrial DNA.
What does mitochondrial DNA code for?
Mitochondrial DNA codes for 13 mitochondrial proteins, 16S and 12S rRNA and 22 tRNAs
Where do you get your mitochondrial DNA from?
In most organisms, including humans, the mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother.
How much mitochondrial DNA do humans inherit from their fathers?
None, mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother.
Where are the 2 places you will find DNA in a cell?
