What is the part of the cell that contains all the genetic information?

In a eukaryotic cell most of the genetic information is in the DNA of the chromosomes in the nucleus.
There is some DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts, and this DNA also contains genes. For example, one version of a human mitochondrial gene can cause blindness.
In a prokaryotic cell, most of the genetic information is in the single chromosome, which is a naked circular DNA molecule in the cytoplasm. There are also some genes in small rings of DNA called plasmids. Some recombinant DNA techniques (genetic engineering) make use of plasmids for inserting genes into bacteria.

Can you identify the part of the cell that contains genetic materials that determine traits?
what part of the cell contains genetic material or genes that determine traits
Which part of the cell body contains the cell's genetic material?
the cel l nucleus contains genetic material known asDNA
Which named part in a animal cell contains genetic information?
DNA is found in the nucleus of the cell, which contains chromosomes, genes are found on chromosomes
In which part of the cell is genetic information stored?
The genetic information is stored in the NUCLEUS!
Does the nucleus carry genetic information called DNA?
yes! the nucleus stores genetic information. every cell in the body contains the same genes,segments of DNA. each type of cell has certain genes turned on, while others are turned off. DNA and RNA acting as intermediary.........

What part of the plant cell controls what happens inside?
The nucleus controls what happens inside the cell. Nucleus contains genetic information in its chromosomes. DNA and RNA are the nucleic acids found in the nucleus. The genetic information coded in the DNA molecules is interpreted through RNA to control the cell metabolism.The nucleus controls what happens inside the cell.
