Do beans have genetic material?
anything that was once living has genetic material
Can the genetic material for both plants and animals is DNA?
All living organisms have DNA. They differ subtly, but are about 99% similar.
Large structure that contains the cell's genetic material?
The nucleus of the cell encapsulates the genetic material, DNA in chromosomes.(Mitochondria, plasmids, chloroplasts also contain genetic material but that is not the main example.)
What are features of genetic material?
This question is vague. DNA and RNA, nucleic acids, make up the genetic material of living organisms. The nucleotides, building blocks that make up nucleic acids are Cytosine, guanine, adenine,Cytosine, guanine, adenine, thymine thymine, and uracil. See the link for more info.
What do all living things do?
Considering that plants are also living things we all need oxygen, so all living things breath.
What is a characteristic shared by all living organisms?
They have genetic material and they reproduce.
How are viruses harmful to living cells?
Viruses can reproduce very quickly. When reproducing they enter a living cell and they inject their genetic material.
Are sperm considered living organisms?
Yes, sperm are considered living organisms because they have the ability to reproduce and carry genetic material.
Which characteristic do viruses share with living thing?
They contain genetic material. Although virus' contain genetic material, they can not reproduce without being inside of a host cell. Many scientists question if they can be considered living or not, as this is the only life function they are capable of performing.
What is the genetic material that contains characteristics of living organisms?
The DNA molecule is the genetic material of life.
Do all living organisms have genetic material?
Yes, all living things have genetic material.
Do beans have genetic material?
anything that was once living has genetic material
Do all living things reproduce asexually?
No, not all living things reproduce asexually. Many organisms reproduce sexually, where genetic material from two parents is combined to produce offspring with genetic diversity. Some organisms also have the ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually, depending on environmental conditions.
What if A is not a living thing. It is made of genetic material inside a protein coat.?
If A is not a living thing but consists of genetic material inside a protein coat, it is likely a virus. Viruses are infectious agents that rely on host cell machinery to reproduce and are not considered living organisms since they cannot carry out metabolic processes on their own.
Eukarotic cells have genetic material?
All living things have of a genetic material.
What are two ways viruses are like living things?
The only characteristic of a living thing that is shared by viruses is genetic material, either DNA or RNA. They do not reproduce, their genetic information hijacks a living cell's machinery, and turns the cell into a virus factory, this is called replication. They do not require food. Some viruses have moving parts that allow them to inject their genetic material into the host cell.
Why Must every organism reproduce to be considered a living thing?
Reproduction is a fundamental characteristic of living organisms because it ensures the continuation of a species and the transfer of genetic material from one generation to the next. This process allows for genetic diversity, which is essential for adaptation and survival in changing environments. While some organisms may not reproduce during their lifetime, the ability to reproduce is a defining feature that distinguishes living entities from non-living matter.
