DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid which is made up of phosphate, deoxyribose sugar and organic nitrogenous bases. It is a totality of both codons and anticodons. it is the source of genetic information.
Genetic information refers to the code or specific information carried by a codon (nucleotide) which can be "transcribed" into a messenger RNA to build a specific protein, enzyme or hormone in the body.
Messenger RNA carries genetic information in a cell. It takes it from the DNA out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm.
Chromosomes are long, wound up strands of the genetic material, DNA.
No. Steroids are a class of organic molecules and are relatively small. They do not in any way store genetic material.
the nucleus stores all the genetic information (DNA)
An organism's genetic material is packaged in its chromosomes. The genetic material can be in the form of either DNA or RNA.

During meiosis, the exchange of genes between homologous chromosomes, known as crossing over, creates new combinations of genetic material. This process increases genetic diversity by shuffling and mixing genetic information, leading to the creation of unique offspring with different traits.
Intergenic recombination is the exchange of genetic material between different non-coding regions of the genome. This process can lead to the creation of novel combinations of genetic material and increase genetic diversity within a population.
Gametes are different due to the process of meiosis, which involves two rounds of cell division that shuffle genetic material. This results in a unique combination of genetic material in each gamete, ensuring genetic diversity in offspring. Additionally, crossing-over during meiosis further increases genetic variation by exchanging genetic material between homologous chromosomes.
Yeah. It does
DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses. So both DNA & RNA are genetic material. DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses.
No, crossover events during meiosis only occur between homologous chromosomes, which are pairs of chromosomes with similar genetic information. Each chromosome crossover involves the exchange of genetic material between these homologous chromosomes, contributing to genetic diversity in offspring.
Horizontal gene transfer is a process where genetic material is transferred between different organisms, allowing them to share genes. This can happen through mechanisms like conjugation, transformation, or transduction. It allows for the exchange of beneficial traits, such as antibiotic resistance, between organisms.
Chromosomes exchange genetic information through the process of genetic recombination, specifically during meiosis. This process involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, resulting in genetic variation among offspring.
DNA
Bacterial cells do have genetic material, which is usually in the form of a single circular chromosome located in the nucleoid region of the cell. This genetic material contains the information needed for the cell to function and replicate.
Swapping of genetic genetic material is when two chromosomes (maternal and paternal) with the same gene sequence exchange genes, this occurs during Phrophase 1 of meiosis by a process called crossing over. Hope this helps.
