the genetic material of the cell is either DNA (Deoxyribose Nucleic acid) or RNA (ribose nucleic acid). DNA is mainly found in the nucleus of a cell, as well as in the mitochondria. It is also seen in chloroplasts in Plant cells.

What organelle carries hereditary material?

In those cells that are eukaryotes, the organelle is the nucleus. In those that are not, the genetic material is not found in an organelle but just condensed in the cytoplasm.


When the cells in an organism divide and reproduce the organism can grow. Which cell organelle contains the genetic material for reproduction?

The cell organelle that contains the genetic material for reproduction is the nucleus. The nucleus houses the organism's DNA, which carries the genetic information necessary for cell division and the development of new cells. During reproduction, this genetic material is replicated and passed on to the daughter cells, enabling growth and development.

What is a membrane-bound structure within a cell which carries out a particular function?

An organelle is a membrane-bound structure within a cell that carries out specific functions. Examples include the nucleus for genetic material storage, mitochondria for energy production, and lysosomes for waste digestion. Organelles compartmentalize different biochemical reactions to maintain cell function.
