What else can I help you with?
Do prions contain DNA or RNA?
Prions are an infectious particle made of protein. They do not contain DNA or RNA.
What pathogen is a packet of proteins with no RNA or DNA?
A prion is a pathogen that consists solely of proteins and lacks both RNA and DNA. Prions are known to cause degenerative neurological diseases in animals and humans by inducing normal proteins to misfold and aggregate, leading to cellular damage.
Do walruses have DNA?
Yes, walruses have DNA. DNA contains the genetic information that determines an organism's physical characteristics and biological functions, and all living organisms, including walruses, possess DNA.
What unique substance does the nucleus chloroplast and mitochondria have in common?
DNA is found in all three.Mitochondria and chloroplasts have circular DNA.
DNA is found only in sperm and ovum?
No, DNA isn't just found in the sperm and ovum. DNA is found in the nucleus of all cells in the body.

What basic structure do viruses share?
Unlike prions and viroids, viruses consist of two or three parts: all viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are outside a cell. Viroids do not have a protein coat and prions contain no RNA or DNA. In short, just say that all viruses have a protein coat and either DNA or RNA.
Would the concept that all infectious agents contain either DNA or RNA be considered a scientific fact theory hypothesis or model?
None of those. Prions are infectious protein molecules which do not contain DNA or RNA.

No, DNA isn't just found in the sperm and ovum. DNA is found in the nucleus of all cells in the body.
Why is DNA found in bananas?
DNA is found in all life on earth. It is the basis of cellular reproduction.
Where is all of your DNA found?
in your cells
Is all the DNA a cell has found in the nucleus?
No, you also have DNA in the mitochondira.
All cells have DNA. The DNA of a cell can be found in the?
nucleus of the cell.
What type of organisms have no genetic material at all?
Organisms that have no genetic material at all are typically classified as acellular entities, such as viruses. While viruses contain genetic material (either DNA or RNA), they lack the cellular structure and machinery necessary for independent life. However, in the context of strictly no genetic material, certain prions—misfolded proteins that can induce abnormal folding of normal proteins—are considered to have no genetic material. Prions are infectious agents but do not contain DNA or RNA.
