Mitochondria
The nucleus of the cell contains the genome.
The nucleus of the cell contains the genome.
The part of a cell that contains an organism's genome is the nucleus. The nucleus houses the cell's DNA, which contains the genetic information necessary for growth, development, and functioning. In prokaryotic organisms, the genome is found in a region called the nucleoid, as they lack a defined nucleus.
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) contains the cell's genome. DNA is a double-stranded molecule that stores the genetic information of an organism.
All DNA in one cell of an organism is collectively referred to as the genome. The cell's genome contains all the genetic material, including both coding and non-coding regions, necessary for the cell's function and development. Each cell within an organism typically contains a complete set of genetic instructions required for its specific functions.

The instructions for producing enzymes are located in the genome of the cell. The DNA in the nucleus of the cell contains the genetic information that codes for the production of enzymes. This information is then transcribed into messenger RNA in the nucleus and translated into proteins, including enzymes, in the cytoplasm by ribosomes.
A retrovirus contains reverse transcriptase. This enzyme allows the virus to convert its RNA genome into DNA once inside a host cell, integrating the viral DNA into the host cell's genome for replication. HIV is an example of a retrovirus.
In humans there are 23 pairs, for a total of 46 chromosomes (the complete genome) in each body cell.
The total genetic information in a cell is stored in its genome, which consists of DNA molecules. The genome contains all the hereditary information necessary for the growth, development, and functioning of an organism.
The part of a cell that contains organelles is called the cytoplasm in Eurkaryotic cells
