What part of a cell contains chromosomes made of DNA?
In a eukaryotic cell, the chromosomes are located inside the nucleus. For a prokaryote, the single, circular chromosome is in the cytoplasm.
Which organisms have circular chromosomes?
Prokaryotic organisms such as Bacteria have circular form of chromosomes
Why plasmid are circular?
Plasmids are genetic structures in a cell that can replicate independently of the chromosomes. They are circular because linear DNA requires a way to copy its ends.
How many chromosomes found in the cytoplasm of prokaryote cell DNA?
One circular main chromosome and, perhaps, a number ( 1 to 3 ) of circular plasmids.
Where the cell are the chromosomes located?
the cytoplasm
What is the shape of a prokaryotic chromosome?
Prokaryotic chromosomes are typically circular in shape, meaning they form a closed loop. This circular chromosome is found free-floating in the cytoplasm of the prokaryotic cell, unlike the linear chromosomes found in eukaryotic cells which are housed within the nucleus.
What is the function of chromosomes in a bacteria cell?
Chromosomes in bacteria cells carry the genetic information necessary for the cell to function and reproduce. They contain the bacterial DNA in a single circular structure, and are essential for controlling the cell's growth and metabolism.
How many chromosomes does a bacterium have?
Bacteria do not have chromosomes. They have a small circular piece of DNA within the cell. The chromosome of a bacterium is the single molecule of circular DNA. It is also called as nucleoid.
How do chromosomes function in a prokaryotic cell?
In prokaryotic cells, chromosomes are circular, double-stranded DNA molecules located in the nucleoid region. They contain the genetic information necessary for the cell's growth, reproduction, and function. The chromosomes are essential for cellular processes such as replication, transcription, and translation.
Do chromosomes contain mitochondria that determine which trait an organism will have?
No, chromosomes do not contain mitochondria. Mitochondria have their own DNA, separate from the DNA in the cell's nucleus. Traits are determined by the combination of genes on chromosomes, not by mitochondria.
What are rod-shaped structures found in the nucleus of every cell in an organism?
Its called BACCILLI the circular shapeds are COCCI(pronouced cox-i) and the spirals are spirilla
Are prokaryotic chromosomes linear or circular?
Yes and no. Where Eukaryotes (like people, plants, fungi and ect) have multiple linear chromosomes Bacteria have one circular chromosome.Yes Bacteria have one chromosomeNo Bacteria don't have chromosomes
