DNA is present in every cell our body. DNA is present in somatic cells as well as reproductive cells (gametes). DNA is responsible for the genetic inheritance, passed along from one generation to another.

∙ 11y agoa sperm cell is responsible for sexual reproduction in organisms and thus must contain the hereditary material needed for development which is the DNA. a sperm cell is said to be haploid, that is, containing half the number of chromosomes of a somatic or body cell. when a sperm cell meets the egg, it contributes its chromosomes to the otherwise haploid egg making the new cell, the zygote, diploid.

∙ 12y agoNot necessarily. Yes, DNA is kept in the nucleus, but during transcription a copy of the DNA encoded into mRNA travels out of the nucleus, through the cytoplasm, and to the ribosome to become a template for protein synthesis. The actual DNA itself is only found in the nuclei, but those mRNA copies can be found elsewhere. This, of course, applies to eukaryotes, for prokaryotes do not have a nucleus to hold DNA. Their DNA is found in the cytoplasm.
In eukaryotes DNA is also found inside mitochondria & chloroplasts besides the nuclear DNA.

What structures are found in animal cells but not in plant cells that help with reproduction?
Centriole or chromatin
An advantage of sexual reproduction is?
An advantage of a sexual reproduction is that it is able to produce more offspring because of the mate. Children are different from the parents and more genetic variation species.
Where are the kupffers cells located?
Kupffer cells are tissue-associated macrophages or histiocytes that are found primarily in the sinusoids of the liver.
If you dont get a new person each time your cells reproduce what does cell reproduction do for the body?
Cell reproduction is the way complex organisms like human beigns grow.
What are found in all metabolically active cells and are involved primarily in transporting materials?
vesicles
Do flowers reproduce through mitosis?
Flowering plants can reproduce through mitotic cell division, or asexual reproduction. However, the flowers are the sexual reproductive organs, producing egg cells and sperm cells. Egg cells are found in the ovary of a flower, and the sperm cells are found in the pollen. Therefore, flowering plants also undergo sexual reproduction when a sperm cell reaches an egg cell.
Is sea horse reproduction asexual or sexual?
They are sexual..Both sexes are found in the species.
Are centrioles found in onion cells?
Centrioles are only found in the reproduction of animal cells- so, no.
Sexual reproduction is found most often in?
complex multicellular organisms
What structures are found in animal cells but not in plant cells that help with reproduction?
Centriole or chromatin
What cells can be Found in both plant and animal cells?
The basic two: the acquisition of foodstuffs and reproduction.
Compare the haploid life cycle found in chlamydomonas with a diploid life cycle?
Haploid = Asexual Reproduction Diploid = Sexual Reproduction
How many type of reproduction are found in plants?
Sexual, asexual and vegetative (3) types
An advantage of sexual reproduction is?
An advantage of a sexual reproduction is that it is able to produce more offspring because of the mate. Children are different from the parents and more genetic variation species.
Is red blood cells found in the epidermis?
No, red blood cells are not found in the epidermis. Red blood cells are primarily found in the circulatory system, specifically within blood vessels. The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and primarily consists of epithelial cells.
What internal cell structure is found in animal cells only?
Centrioles are only found in animal cells. During reproduction, they create spindle fibers.
Where are the kupffers cells located?
Kupffer cells are tissue-associated macrophages or histiocytes that are found primarily in the sinusoids of the liver.
