DNA is double stranded Except in bacteria and some viruses and chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA
What else can I help you with?
How is the DNA in a prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukaryotes?
DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually circular while DNA in eukaryotes is usually linear. DNA in prokaryotes usually has fewer portions that dont code for something while eukaryotes usually have quite a bit of DNA sections that dont code for anything. The number of actual base pairs (the units that makeup DNA) that makeup eukaryotes is usually quite a bit more than the number in prokaryotic DNA.
Is linear DNA found in prokaryotic or eukaryotic organisms?
Linear DNA is typically found in eukaryotic organisms, while prokaryotic organisms usually have circular DNA.
What organelle is DNA usually found in?
DNA is usually found in the nucleus of a cell. This is where the majority of the cell's genetic material is stored and protected. Additionally, some organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts also contain small amounts of DNA.
Is it true that both DNA and RNA are double-stranded molecules?
No, DNA is typically double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded.
What is a DNA terminator sequence?
A DNA terminator sequence is a specific nucleotide sequence that signals the end of transcription for RNA polymerase, thus stopping the synthesis of RNA from DNA. It usually contains a stem-loop structure that causes RNA polymerase to dissociate from the DNA template.
Some organisms use singlestranded rather than doublestranded DNA In these organisms which enzyme would probably not be needed for DNA replication?
Some viruses have single stranded DNA molecules. These viruses do not have the machinery to synthesise the DNA on their own. They insert their DNA in a living cell where the DNA synthesis takes place.
How is the DNA different from a prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukaryote?
DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually circular while DNA in eukaryotes is usually linear. DNA in prokaryotes usually has fewer portions that dont code for something while eukaryotes usually have quite a bit of DNA sections that dont code for anything. The number of actual base pairs (the units that makeup DNA) that makeup eukaryotes is usually quite a bit more than the number in prokaryotic DNA.

Where is DNA found at in a cell?
DNA is found within the Nucleus, usually in the form of chromatin
What does it mean when a cell replicates DNA?
It means that a copy of the DNA is made; usually an exact copy.
What is deoxyribonucleic acid usually known as?
Deoxyribonucleic acid's commonly known as DNA.
What is DNA unit called that is usually transcribed?
A gene
Are Dna molecules usually millions to billions of nucleotides long?
Yes they are, quite usually!
What structure contains ameba's DNA?
Ameba's DNA is located in the nucleus of the ameba cell. The nucleus usually have the a double membrane surrounding it, protecting the DNA.
What does a cell of a eukaryote have to hold DNA that a cell of a prokaryote does not have?
DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually circular while DNA in eukaryotes is usually linear. DNA in prokaryotes usually has fewer portions that dont code for something while eukaryotes usually have quite a bit of DNA sections that dont code for anything. The number of actual base pairs (the units that makeup DNA) that makeup eukaryotes is usually quite a bit more than the number in prokaryotic DNA.
