Does a nucleus contain its own DNA?
No, it has DNA in it but not its own.
Why are mitochondria able to reproduce themselves?
They have own circular DNA and ribosomes.So they can reproduce.
What do cloroplast and mitocondria have that other organelles lack?
their own DNA
An organelles that release stored energy which mostly comes from sugars.?
mitochondria
Bacterial DNA is not cleaved by their own restriction enzyme because?
The methylation of DNA prevents the cleavage of its own DNA
What can you compare mitochonria to?
Mitoman
What process occurs in the mitochonria?
It helps in respiration .
Why all your mitochonria is same in mother mitochondria but not fahter mitochondria?
You do not get any organelles from your father except his DNA. Your mother's egg has all of the organelles that the new individual will need including the mitochronria.

Does cytoplasm have its own DNA?
No. The DNA for cytoplasm is in the nucleus of the cell. BUT Some of the organelles in the cell have their own DNA. (Mitochondria are the best example it has a complete set of DNA)
What has its own DNA independent of nuclear DNA?
Mitocondria
Why mitochondria have DNA?
They desend from bacteria.So they have their own DNA
Are DNA in mitochondria?
Yes they have their own DNA.They have circular DNA.
