Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, and therefore do not have a nucleus.
The DNA found within bacteria is located in the cytoplasm - in an area called the nucleoid. It is not surrounded by a membrane like in eukaryotic cells.
What else can I help you with?
Where is bacterial cells DNA found in a prokaryotic cell?
Bacterial DNA are in plasmids.Plasmids are in cytoplasm.
What stores the DNA in the prokaryotic cell?
Think about it this way. In a eukaryotic cell, the DNA is in a neat, clean room (nucleus). In a prokaryotic cell, the DNA is in a messy yard with no room. The DNA just floats in the prokaryote.
Which structure is found in the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell but is not found in the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell?
DNA
How is the DNA in a prokaryotic cell organised?
DNA, CYTOPLASM, FLAGELLA, CILLIA, MITOCHONDRIA
Does prokaryotic hold DNA?
Prokaryotes do have DNA, it just is not contained within a nucleus. It is loosely bound within the prokaryote.
Is DNA a prokaryotic?
DNA is not a cell so therefore it cannot be categorized into prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
How does the storage of the DNA of a prokaryotic cell differ from that of a eukaryotic cell?
In a eukaryotic cell DNA is stored in a nucleus as chromatin ( unless the cell is in the process of mitosis in which the DNA would arrange itself as chromosomes) However a prokaryotic cell has no nucleus, the genetic material is stored in the cytoplasm of the cell, prokaryotic cells also have a plasmid which is a ring of DNA which is separate to the main genetic material. This plasmid contains DNA not found in the main genetic material. The plasmid is also in the cytoplasm.
What is a prokaryotic cell found in?
A prokaryotic cell has DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane an cytoplasm.
Is it true or false that prokaryotic cells contain more DNA than eukaryotic cells?
False. Eukaryotic cells generally contain more DNA than prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have their DNA enclosed within a nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells have their DNA located in the cytoplasm.
Is DNA in a prokaryotic cell?
Yes, DNA is present in prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome that contains the genetic information of the cell. This DNA is located in the nucleoid region of the cell.
What is the difference eukaryotic cell and prokaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA carry genetic information for the development, functioning and reproduction of prokaryotes and eukaryotes respectively. Eukaryotes consist of membranebound nucleus whereas prokaryotes lack a membrane­bound nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA is double­stranded and circular. But, eukaryotic DNA is double­strand and linear. The amount of DNA in prokaryotic cells is much less than the amount of DNA in eukaryotic cells. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA undergo replication by the enzyme DNA polymerase. The main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA is that prokaryotic DNA is found in the cytoplasm whereas eukaryotic DNA is packed into the nucleus of the cell.
What is the difference in the location of DNA in a prokaryotic cell and In a eukaryotic cell?
In prokaryotic cells, DNA is located in the nucleoid region, which is a condensation of DNA in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotic cells, DNA is contained within a membrane-bound nucleus.
When DNA is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane the cell it is a?
When DNA is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane, the cell is called a prokaryotic cell. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus, so the DNA is located in the cytoplasm in a region called the nucleoid. Examples of prokaryotic cells include bacteria and archaea.
What is found in prokaryotic cells?
A prokaryotic cell has DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane an cytoplasm.
What type of cell contains circular DNA?
prokaryotic
What cell has DNA but no nucleus and lacks membrane-bound organelles?
Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, have DNA but no nucleus and lack membrane-bound organelles. The DNA in prokaryotic cells is located in the nucleoid region of the cytoplasm.
What is the difference between a eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA carry genetic information for the development, functioning and reproduction of prokaryotes and eukaryotes respectively. Eukaryotes consist of membranebound nucleus whereas prokaryotes lack a membrane­bound nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA is double­stranded and circular. But, eukaryotic DNA is double­strand and linear. The amount of DNA in prokaryotic cells is much less than the amount of DNA in eukaryotic cells. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA undergo replication by the enzyme DNA polymerase. The main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA is that prokaryotic DNA is found in the cytoplasm whereas eukaryotic DNA is packed into the nucleus of the cell.
