Do plants have circular DNA?

No, plants have linear DNA, like most eukaryotic organisms, contained within the nucleus of their cells. Circular DNA is typically found in prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria.


Do both plants and animals have the same kind of genetic material which is called DNA?

Yes, both plants and animals have DNA as their genetic material. DNA carries the genetic instructions that determine the traits and functions of living organisms. While there may be variations in the specific sequences and structures of DNA between plants and animals, the fundamental genetic material is the same.


Do plants have DNA and how does it contribute to their growth and development?

Yes, plants have DNA, which is a molecule that carries genetic information. DNA controls the growth and development of plants by providing instructions for processes such as cell division, photosynthesis, and the production of proteins essential for growth.


Would it be hard for plants to make DNA with a shortage of phosphorus in the soil?

Yes, phosphorus is an essential element for DNA synthesis in plants. A shortage of phosphorus in the soil can lead to stunted growth, reduced flowering, and poor development of roots in plants as they struggle to synthesize enough DNA for growth and reproduction.


How does DNA fingerprinting of plants work?

DNA fingerprinting is used in analysis of crop plants using techniques similar to read the DNA of humans. Luckily, the DNA sequence of plants is usually much shorter, and in plants this reading of DNA is often used to attempt to breed more perfect crops, both in taste and survivability.

What is the difference between the target cell DNA and source DNA?

DNA is deoxyribo nucleic acid chains. If the DNA is taken from a source such as a micro organism or a plant is known as source DNA. Targe cells are where your construct is going to be transfected, target cells posses their own target cell DNA.


Source of DNA for a bacterium?

What are best Source of forensic evidence?

The best source for any forensic evidence is the person's DNA sample. If the person involved in crime is badly wounded then that person can also be identified from dental records. Fingerprinting and brain mapping are one the best source of forensic evidence in 21st century crimes.


Do plants have genetic material in their cells?

Yes, plants have DNA.


Are plants made up of DNA?

No. Note. DNA is not an animal either. Both Plants and Animals have DNA in the nucleus of their cells, DNA is the chemical that codes the instruction to build something living, the "immortal coil".


What is the effect of different species of plants having very different DNA?

different species of plants having very different DNA causes them to be different species of plants.
