According to biologists, the nucleus is the organelle in organisms that genetic material can be found because DNA and nucleic acid is stored inside the nucleus.

Who is the related person to the organelle nucleus?

The related person to the organelle nucleus would be the cell's genetic material, which is housed within the nucleus. The nucleus contains the cell's DNA and controls the cell's activities by regulating gene expression.


Do some organisms not have DNA or RNA?

It would be easier to ask what organisms do not have DNA, as all living organisms contain genetic material within them. The answer would be those viruses that only employ RNA as a replication agent such as the Tobacco Mosaic Virus.


Why does every cell in the body must have genetic material inside of it for it to work?

Genetic material, such as DNA, is essential for cells to function properly because it contains the instructions for making proteins that carry out cellular processes. Without genetic material, cells would not be able to reproduce, maintain their structure, or carry out necessary functions to support life. Having genetic material ensures that cells can replicate and pass on genetic information to daughter cells.


Why do living organisms reproduce?

Living organisms reproduce in order to pass on their genetic material to the next generation, ensuring the survival of their species. Reproduction is essential for the continuation of life and allows for genetic diversity, which is important for adapting to changing environments and evolutionary processes.


What would be on a venn diagram of sexual and asexual reproduction?

A Venn diagram of sexual and asexual reproduction would show two distinct circles, with sexual reproduction having traits such as genetic variation, combination of genetic material, and offspring with greater diversity. Asexual reproduction would include traits like identical offspring, rapid reproduction, and no genetic recombination. The overlapping area would represent organisms that can reproduce through both sexual and asexual means.

What organelle would you exspect to find in autotrophic organisms?

chloroplast


Which organelle would you expect to find in only in autotrophic organisms?

chloroplast


What would happen if the nucleus didn't have genetic materials?

A cell cannot function without genetic material (with the exception of red blood cells, which do function without genetic material - all they have to do is to contain hemoglobin and float in the blood as it circulates). However, in organisms called prokaryotes the genetic information is not present in the nucleus but in the cytoplasm. This is possible because their genetic material is very simple and does not need the nucleus to protect it from harm.


How is gene inheritence different between sexual and asexual reproduction?

In sexually reproducing organisms the progeny receive 1/2 genetic material from the female and 1/2 genetic material from the male and this would insure some genetic variation aside from all the other genetic variation methods. In asexual reproduction the progeny inherit 100% of the genetic material and are, to an extent, closes of the progenitor organism.


What cell would you expect to find only in autotrophic organisms?

Autotrophic organisms are animals or plants that can create their own energy from the Sun. The organelle most common in these organisms are chloroplasts.


If a scientist wanted remove genetic material from a cell to make a DNA fingerprint what organelle could be used?

To create a DNA fingerprint, a scientist would typically isolate the nucleus of a cell, as it contains the cell's genetic material (DNA). However, it's important to note that the nucleus is not an organelle that can be "removed" in the traditional sense; rather, the DNA is extracted from the nucleus. Other organelles, such as mitochondria, also contain DNA, but for most DNA fingerprinting purposes, nuclear DNA is the primary focus.


Would find the genetic material in a cell?

the answer is yes.


Many scientists think genetic material was composed of protein because?

Protein was originally thought to be the genetic material because of its complexity, protein is made up 20 different amino acids while DNA only consists of four bases. This was logical as the complexity would account for diversity in organisms. But after more research was done it was realized that DNA was actually the genetic material.


What would be the term for any uncorrected mistakes during replication?

The term for uncorrected mistakes during replication is mutations. These mutations can result in changes to the genetic material, leading to variation among organisms.


Does Sand have DNA?

Sand would not unless some particles are made of biotic, organic material.


Why would sterility be a good thing for organisms with a genetic defect?

Sterility means that they cannot reproduce, which would prevent the genetic defect from being passed on to future generations.
