b. it could carry and make copies of information
Chromosomes and sister chromatids are joined strands of duplicated genetic material. A chromatid is one copy of a duplicated chromosome which, before replication, is composed of one DNA molecule.
DNA, the genetic material, of course. Also mitochondria and chloroplasts need to divide. This is the process of mitosis where two daughter cells are produced and both will need the complete complement of genetic material; DNA.
there are many issues dealing with genetic engineering, most people who go through genetic therapy come out with a disease, when they didn't before
When ductile material is loaded, when stress reaches yield and if the load continues, as long as load is not high enough to break material, the material is strain hardened when returning to no load. That means its yield strength will be higher than before, and the material is stronger.
Genetic engineering uses genetic material harvested from foetal stem cell. These stem cells can be acquired from 'spare' or 'waste' IVF embryos; aborted foetuses; and cloned embryonic material. The ethical debate centres around the sources of stem cells. Utilitarianism would look favourably upon Genetic Engineering, as Somatic therapy can be used to find many cures for various diseases, therefore achieving the greatest good for the majority of people. As this teleological argument focuses on consequence and the greatest good for the greatest number, it could be argued that the decision to fertilise an egg by Genetic engineering in the process of IVF for example is moral, as the happiness of the couple outweighs that of the embryo they are discarding. Embryo experimentation has the potential to find cures to many serious and currently incurable diseases, such as Alzheimer's; Huntingdon's; diabetes; Parkinson's. This potential has led to increased support from the utilitarian approach for its authorisation. As a result of the fact that the foetus is destroyed after 'engineering' at 14 days (before it becomes 'sentient') means Utilitarian arguments are in favour of it.
The genetic material is located in the nucleus of the cell. Before mitosis can occur, the DNA must replicate to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material.
each parent must reduce his/her genetic material by half in a process called meiosis.
Before a cell divides, its genetic information is duplicated during the S phase of interphase. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic material. The duplicated genetic material is then condensed into chromosomes for proper segregation during cell division.
Chromosomes and sister chromatids are joined strands of duplicated genetic material. A chromatid is one copy of a duplicated chromosome which, before replication, is composed of one DNA molecule.
A bacteriophage is a completely assembled virus capable of landing on a bacterium and injecting it's genetic material in lysis, or a lysogenic attack. A provirus is a virus that has incorporated it's genetic material into the genetic material of the host for continual replication, thus, " before " the phage. This is the lysogenic phase of viral attack.
replicating
DNA in hair can last for centuries before it degrades, as hair is a durable source of genetic material.
Chromosomes and sister chromatids are joined strands of duplicated genetic material. A chromatid is one copy of a duplicated chromosome which, before replication, is composed of one DNA molecule.
The genetic material in each of the 46 chromosomes of a human cell just before division is DNA. DNA carries the instructions for building and maintaining an organism. During cell division, the DNA is replicated and then divided equally between the new cells.
during sporulation ( spore formation from vegetative cell) genetic material (DNA) is degraded....it doesnt carry "genetic material" as awhole but carries all of its components- bases, sugars, phosphates...during or before germination ( spore to new organism) polymerization of these components' united structure ( nucleotide) occurs.
Viruses attach specific cells and inject genetic material. There are viruses called bacteriophages that infect bacteria be injecting their genetic material into the bacterial host and invading their protein machinery. With animal viruses that infect animal cells (much larger than bacteria), the virus either injects genetic material OR gets into the cell whole before it begins to unleash its pathogenic effects
Short Answer is It's Chromatin. Ordinarily it is called Diploid, see chromosome pairs, the chromosome number is 2N. After meiosis the genetic material is Haploid, its chromosome number is 1N; after replication yet before mitosis the genetic material is Quadraploid with its chromosome number 4N - briefly. The full set of genetic material in an organism is called GENOME.
