No, DNA and the nucleolus are not the same thing.
DNA is a nucleic acid which contains the instructions for the processes of the cell. The nucleolus is the area within the nucleus of a cell that is responsible for transcribing and assembling rRNA (ribosomal RNA). rRNA forms part of the ribosomes - which are responsible for protein synthesis.
What else can I help you with?
What does the nucleolus store?
The nucleus of a cell contains the nucleolus.
What part of the cell contains DNA that carries genetic information?
The nucleus (or nucleolus depending on the type of cell)
What 3 things does the nucleus contain?
The nucleus contains chromosomes, which carry genetic information in the form of DNA. It also contains the nucleolus, which is involved in the production of ribosomes. Additionally, the nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear membrane to separate its contents from the rest of the cell.
Describe the contents of the nucleus during interphase?
During interphase there will be a nucleolus (the region where ribosomes are made) and the DNA in the form of chromatin. There will also be some mRNA being transcribed from the DNA for the genes being expressed.
What is inside the nucleolus of a cell?
the nucleus contains the nucleolus and chromosomes. the nucleolus is just a ball of proteins and nucleic acids. it doesn't contain anything else and im pretty sure the only function is to hold spare nucleic acids for the production of RNA
Why are nucleus and nucleolus?
that's only in a cell the nucleolus contains DNA
What holds DNA?
The nucleus and nucleolus of every cell contains and protects the DNA
What is a cell nucleolus?
A cell nucleolus is the part in the middle of the cell which contains data and DNA from that cell
What does nucleus contain?
Nucleus contains Nucleolus, Genetic Material, and DNA
What does the nucleolus store?
The nucleus of a cell contains the nucleolus.
What is the definition of nucleolus?
Largest organelle in the nucleus; contains DNA, RNA, and proteins.
what controls the center of the cell contains most of the DNA?
The nucleus, and the nucleolus. thanks, Steph :)
Within the nucleus of a cell you can find?
You find DNA in the nucleus of a cell. You also find the nucleolus.
Is a nucleolus in both a plant and animal cell?
yes. the mucleolus contains the animal/plants DNA.
What part of the cell contains DNA that carries genetic information?
The nucleus (or nucleolus depending on the type of cell)
What does a nucleus contain besides DNA?
a nucleus contains chromatin fibres , then chromosomes ,and then the dna.
Is the nucleolus and the DNA the same thing?
No. Nucleolus is a separate structure inside the nucleus. DNA is also housed in the nucleus, but not within the nucleolus.Actually, this is incorrect. The nucleolus is the site for ribosomal RNA synthesis and processing. Thus, there is DNA in the nucleolus, it is the DNA repeats that encode ribosomal RNA.
