What part of the cell contains the cell genetic material and controls its activities?
It is called the nucleus. It is the control unit
How can the nucleus contol everything in the cell?
The nucleus contains the DNA which is the genetic instructions for the cell
What is a complex molecule in the cell's chromosomes that carries genetic information?
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a molecule that carries the genetic instructions.
Is it true that Chromatin contains the instructions that direct the functions of a cell?
Yes. Chromatin refers to DNA in its native state in a cell - wrapped around histone proteins. Therefore, because DNA contains all the instructions to generate proteins and thereby influence cell activity the same can be accurately said of chromatin as well.
What cells have a complete set of chromosomes?
All human cells have a complete set of chromosomes. Every single human cell has the same genetic information, but each cell specializes in which information it uses specifically based on the function of the cell.
Why DNA replication needed a cell divides into two daughter cells?
DNA replicates before a cell divides to give a complete set of genetic instructions to each daughter cell.
Why do cells have same genetic instructions but not the same functions?
Not all the 'instructions' refer to every cell. Some instructions are cell specific.
What are the two cells that carry genes called?
Every cell contains the complete genetic code.
What does a new cell need to function?
a set of genetic instructions
What does DNA do to a cell?
DNA is the genetic "instructions" for how the cell should replicate. It also controls the behavior of the cell.
What part of the cell contains the cell genetic material and controls its activities?
It is called the nucleus. It is the control unit
What material is responsible for passing on genetic instructions in the nucleus?
the cell membrane
How can the nucleus contol everything in the cell?
The nucleus contains the DNA which is the genetic instructions for the cell
What part of the plant cell includes the instructions for the plant to work?
The nucleus of the plant cell includes instructions for the plant to work. These instruction are translated into action through various types of RNAs transcribed by DNA. This is called inbuilt genetic information.
What is control center of a cell?
The control center of the cell is the nucleus of the cell. It is where all the genetic material is stored. The genetic material codes for all things, and thus giving the cell and its components its 'instructions'. :]
Each daughter cell has a complete set of what?
genetic information
What is a complex molecule in the cell's chromosomes that carries genetic information?
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a molecule that carries the genetic instructions.
