The nucleus contains chromosomes,which are visible as rod-shaped structures only when the cell is about to divide .Chromosomes contain information for inheritance of features from parents to next generation in the form of DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) molecules. Chromosomes are composed of DNA and protein. DNA molecules contain the information necessary for constructing and organising cells.Functional segments are called genes. In a cell which is not dividing, this DNA is present as part of chromatin material.Chromatin material is visible as entangled mass of thread like structures. Whenever the cell is about to divide, the chromatin material gets organised into chromosomes.
What else can I help you with?
What is the molecule found in the nucleus of cells that forms a double helix?
The molecule found in the nucleus of cells that forms a double helix is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms.
What structure in the nucleus holds the DNA?
The DNA molecule forms a double helix. The linear DNA chromosomes of eukaryotes form a highly supercoiled double helix.
What organelle also stores DNA?
The nucleus contains most of the DNA in a cell and this DNA is called the chromosomal DNA. It is separated from the rest of the cell by a double layer of membrane. The mitochondria also contain DNA, called the mitochondrial DNA.
Is DNA found in cells of nucleus in?
Yes,Most of DNA found in nucleus.90% of DNA is in nucleus.
Where is the DNA in a eukaryotic?
In a eukaryote, the DNA is to be found in the cell's nucleus.
What is the molecule found in the nucleus of cells that forms a double helix?
The molecule found in the nucleus of cells that forms a double helix is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms.
Where in a cell is DNA found?
DNA is found in the nucleus of eukaryotes or in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes. The DNA forms complex strands known as chromatin, and when dividing, chromosomes.
What structure in the nucleus holds the DNA?
The DNA molecule forms a double helix. The linear DNA chromosomes of eukaryotes form a highly supercoiled double helix.
Is DNA a nucleus?
The nucleus contains DNA. The DNA is found in the nucleus.
Are bacteria cells with nucleus?
Bacteria are the most primitive forms of cells, and they do not have a "real" nucleus. Their DNA basically floats around inside of them.
What do you call DNA in the nucleus before it condenses to form chromosomes?
DNA forms nucleosomes (beads on the string) by combining histone proteins, nucleosomes condense into chromatins before it forms Chromosomes
What organelle also stores DNA?
The nucleus contains most of the DNA in a cell and this DNA is called the chromosomal DNA. It is separated from the rest of the cell by a double layer of membrane. The mitochondria also contain DNA, called the mitochondrial DNA.
Is DNA found in cells of nucleus in?
Yes,Most of DNA found in nucleus.90% of DNA is in nucleus.
What is the difference between DNA strands and DNA nucleus?
There is no such thing called a DNA nucleus. I assume you mean DNA found in the nucleus. The DNA that's found in the nucleus are many DNA strands all bunched up.
Is this related a nucleus and DNA?
The cell nucleus contains DNA.
Where is DNA store in the cell?
The Nucleus and mitochondria in eucaryotes
Where is the DNA in a eukaryotic?
In a eukaryote, the DNA is to be found in the cell's nucleus.
