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 animals and plants have DNA?

no animals and plant cells can not have the same genes.


Do avocados have DNA?

all plants and animals contain DNA


Do human have DNA?

Yes, all animals and plants have DNA


Where do plants get their genetic information from?

They get it from the same place that animals like us do, the genes in their chromosomes found in the DNA.


Does a rose have DNA?

Yes anything that is living has DNA. All plants and animals have DNA.


Do the DNA in animals follow the same base pairing rule as DNA in plants?

No; nearly all organisms use the same 4 nucleotide bases in DNA (RNA uses Uracil instead of Thymine in DNA). I believe there is a single species of bacteria that uses a different base, but other than that, every single living being uses the same 4 DNA bases: Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, and Thymine. What differs is their specific sequence.


What do both animals and plants have?

Both animals and plants have organelles called mitochondria. They also both have cells, RNA and DNA.


Can DNA be found in a banana?

DNA is in all living things. (plants, animals, etc.) Yes.


Would DNA from animal cells differ from plant cells?

Depends on what is meant by DNA. The amino acid (G,A,T,C etc.) building blocks of DNA are the same for plants as well as animals. The arrangement of these blocks into genes and chromosomes determines the genetic make up of a specific organism. In this respect no two animal organisms are never the same - as mostly they are the result of sexual reproduction where genetic material is contributed by both parents. In plants the same applies (cross-pollination), but here there is an interesting difference; most plants can be reproduced asexually (vegetative), this means that you can have hundreds of thousands of plants all with the same genetic makeup (DNA) - a situation very common to ornamental horticulture. At a chromosome level different animal have differing numbers of chromosomes, as do plants. This means for all intense and purpose that plants or animals outside of species level can never normally cross with other plants or animals outside of the same level.


With what do humans share DNA?

Humans share DNA with other living organisms, such as animals, plants, and bacteria.


Does the function of nucleic acids differ from plants to animals?

No, the function of nucleic acids is the same in both plants and animals. Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, play a crucial role in storing and transmitting genetic information, regulating gene expression, and facilitating protein synthesis in both plants and animals.
