Where is the nucleic acid found in a eukaryotic cell?
Nucleic acids, specifically DNA, are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. RNA, another type of nucleic acid, can also be found in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.
What is the function of the nucleic acid within a virus?
The nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) are enclosed in a protein coat called a capsid. Viruses are divided into two groups for classification: those with RNA and those with DNA. Viruses do not duplicate themselves outside of a cell. They are able to replicate only within cells. The DNA or RNA is able to direct the cells to make more viruses.
What is a common name of nucleic acid?
Nucleic acid is one of the 3 parts of nucleotides and can also be called DNA.
What is the Nucleic acid core definition?
a core is The part of a nuclear reactor where binary fission occurs.Some viruses contain DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)and other viruses contain RNA (ribonucleic acid). Either of these molecules is responsible for the primary qualities of life that viruses display while inside host cells. The nucleic acids are genetic instructions for viral activity and reproduction.
Which of the following is a pathogen that is made of nucleic acid surrounded by protein?
A virus is a pathogen that is made of nucleic acid surrounded by protein. Viruses can infect living organisms and hijack their cellular machinery to replicate and spread.
The nucleic acid in viruses is what?
RNA
Are mitocondria found in viruses?
No. Viruses are very basic and that is why they require a host to live and multiply. A virus consists of nucleic acid and a capsid.
Are viruses made of?
protein, nucleic acid /\All viruses are made up of a core of genetic material ... nucleic acid, which is either DNA or RNA. This is surrounded by a protein coat.
Are there any organic compounds in viruses?
yes, viruses contain proteins and nucleic acid.
How viruses are categorised?
Major groups of viruses are distinguished first by their nucleic acid content as either RNA or DNA viruses.
What 2 structures do all viruses have?
All viruses have nucleic acid and a protien coat called a capsid
The basic components of all viruses are a nucleic acid and what other structure?
fg
Is nucleic acids found inside viruses?
Yes, viruses are primarily made up of either DNA or RNA both of which are nucleic acids.
What are viruses made of?
protein, nucleic acid /\All viruses are made up of a core of genetic material ... nucleic acid, which is either DNA or RNA. This is surrounded by a protein coat.
Viruses contains what?
Viruses contain an inner nucleic acid core (genetic material) and an outer protein coat (capsid).
What are the two nucleic acid present in genes?
the two nucleic acid present in gene are:thymine found in the DNA and uracil found in the RNA.
What aspect of the structure of viruses is similar to all living things?
Presence of nucleic acid.
