They are circular DNA. But still double helixThey can use this foe replication.It means they can self replicate


What do both animals and plants have?

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


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.


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.


What 2 organs are DNA located in?

DNA is in every cell in every one of your organs. Inside the cell, DNA is located in the nucleus and in mitochondria. In plants, it is also present in the chloroplast.


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.


What part of the cell contains DNA apart from the nucleus?

The mitochondria contain their own DNA in plants and animals; and chloroplasts contain their own DNA in plants and other photosynthetic organisms. Both of these structures divide (almost like cells) inside the cells.*This is also evidence for the theory of endosymbiosis, in which early cells ate early prokarotic cells (bacteria) and gained new organelles.


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.
