What else can I help you with?
Is it True or false that chromosomes which carry genes are found in the nucleus of the cell?
True. Mitochondria contain their own DNA - and the chromosomes present in mitochondria are much smaller than those found in the nucleus (they are much more similar to Prokaryotic chromosomes). Mitochondrial DNA is not involved in the central processes of the cell.
Which of these cellular organelles have their own DNA?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA. Mitochondria DNA is circular, similar to bacterial DNA, and is inherited maternally. Chloroplasts also have circular DNA and are thought to have originated from endosymbiotic relationships with ancient prokaryotes.
What is speciality of DNA in plants mitochondria?
They are different than plants. They are circular in shape
What two organelles can have DNA?
The two organelles that can have DNA are the mitochondria and the chloroplasts. Mitochondria have their own circular DNA separate from the nuclear DNA, while chloroplasts in plant cells also have their own DNA.
Does DNA have mitochondria?
No, DNA does not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are structures found within cells that have their own DNA, separate from the DNA found in the cell's nucleus. Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy for the cell.
Where can DNA be found other than the nucleus?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the 'language' that genes are 'written in'. The DNA in the nucleus composes the genome (complete set of genes) of the organism to which the cell belongs. Thus the human genome is the genome of the DNA within the nucleus of human cells. But DNA, in plants and other photosynthetic eukaryotes, is found composing a completely different genome within the chloroplasts. And in most eukaryotes including animals, plants and fungi, their is also a separate mitochondrial genome composed from DNA in the mitochondria. The theory of endosymbiosis explains the presence of DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts.
Is it True or false that chromosomes which carry genes are found in the nucleus of the cell?
True. Mitochondria contain their own DNA - and the chromosomes present in mitochondria are much smaller than those found in the nucleus (they are much more similar to Prokaryotic chromosomes). Mitochondrial DNA is not involved in the central processes of the cell.

What is smaller than one cell?
Subcellular structures such as organelles (e.g. mitochondria, ribosomes) are smaller than a cell. Molecules like proteins, lipids, and DNA are even smaller components found within cells. At an even smaller scale, atoms and subatomic particles make up these molecules.

Does DNA have mitochondria?
No, DNA does not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are structures found within cells that have their own DNA, separate from the DNA found in the cell's nucleus. Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy for the cell.
Which organelles contain DNA?
The nucleus and mitochondria are organelles that contain DNA. The nucleus contains the majority of the cell's DNA, while mitochondria have their own independent DNA apart from the cell's nuclear DNA.
What is the mitochondria in?
DNA
What is related to mitochondria?
It is thought that mitochondria were once bacteria as they have their own DNA and it is similar to bacterial DNA.
Do mitochondria have linear DNA, or is their genetic material organized in a different way?
Mitochondria have circular DNA, not linear DNA like the DNA in the nucleus of a cell.
Do chromosomes contain mitochondria that determine which trait an organism will have?
No, chromosomes do not contain mitochondria. Mitochondria have their own DNA, separate from the DNA in the cell's nucleus. Traits are determined by the combination of genes on chromosomes, not by mitochondria.
