All living cells contain both RNA and DNA. RNA is involved in gene expression and protein synthesis, while DNA stores genetic information. These molecules are essential for cellular function and replication.
DNA and RNA
Paramyxoviruses contain single-stranded RNA as their genetic material.
Prions are an infectious particle made of protein. They do not contain DNA or RNA.
There are three main types of RNA found in cells: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNA molecules play crucial roles in protein synthesis and gene expression within cells.
All living cells contain both RNA and DNA. RNA is involved in gene expression and protein synthesis, while DNA stores genetic information. These molecules are essential for cellular function and replication.
Haploid cells like sperm cells,ova,bacteria
Plant cells contain DNA and RNA, just like animal cells.
DNA and RNA
Prokaryotic cells contain ribosomes, transfer RNA, messenger RNA, and amino acids that are essential for protein synthesis. The ribosomes read the messenger RNA code and help assemble amino acids into proteins through a process called translation.
Yes. RNA is used by cells to make proteins. All living organisms produce proteins. In addition to prokaryotes, some viruses only use RNA as genetic material, but use the host cell to produce the proteins. These are called retroviruses like HIV.
Paramyxoviruses contain single-stranded RNA as their genetic material.
No, RNA does not contain the sugar deoxyribose. RNA contains the sugar ribose.
Both RNA and DNA contain ribose, a type of sugar molecule. Ribose is found in the backbone of RNA, while DNA contains a slightly modified form of ribose called deoxyribose in its backbone. These sugars help form the structure of nucleic acids and are important for storing and transmitting genetic information.
Prions are an infectious particle made of protein. They do not contain DNA or RNA.
Yes. Viruses contain either DNA or RNA, but that does not mean they are alive, as they are not composed of cells.
Viruses are composed of two main parts: an outer protein covering called a capsid and an inside core of either DNA or RNA. Not both DNA and RNA. Living cells also contain DNA and RNA. These are the only thing shared by living cells and viruses.
