What cells are diploid in humans? What are chromosomes made up of? How many chromosomes are in a somatic cell? What are chromosomes? What are the 23 chromosomes? Are x and y chromosomes present in every somatic cell? Do all somatic cells have 46 chromosomes?
What are Chromosomes? Chromosomes are threadlike structures and they exist to carry genomic information from cell to cell. They are made of protein and a single molecule of DNA. http://Females have two X chromosomes in their cells, and males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. Ce...
Where in the cell is RNA made? Why is chromatin packaged after DNA replication? What is the type of cell in which most DNA is found in the nucleus? What is the difference between DNA, chromatin, and chromosomes and what is the significance of each form?
In mitosis, the diploid “parent” cell divides and produces two diploid “daughter” cells. However, in meiosis, the parent cell produces four haploid daughter cells (each containing half of the parent cells chromosomes, or 23 chromosomes). The critical difference between mitosis and meiosis is ...
What Chemicals make up DNA? When analyzing DNA it is important to understand it and all the chemicals that it is made of. The first thing that’s important to know is simply what DNA stands for, which is deoxyribonucleic acid. The chemical units are called nucleotides, and each nucleotide ...
Chromosome banding is transverse bands that appear on chromosomes when they're exposed to different stains. Researchers often use...
They differ from prokaryotes mainly in that they have a nucleus— a self-contained structure that contains the genetic material in the form of chromosomes made up of DNA. Prokaryotes Reproduction in prokaryotes is known as binary fission. In this process, the DNA, which is floating freely ...
Most humans have 46 chromosomes, 23 from each genetic parent. These are contained in the nuclei of cells throughout the body, and samples for analysis can be harvested from the blood,bone marrowor bodily tissues. Samples are treated over several days to cause chromosomes to expand for easier ...
Composition and Structure of ChromosomesChromosomes are contained within the nucleus in eukaryotic cells, but can also be found in some of the other organelles such as mitochondria (where DNA is packed into a small circular chromosome). In prokaryotes (e.g. bacteria), on the other hand, ...
What type of RNA copies the sequence of DNA bases in complimentary form? What are chromosomes made of, from DNA, RNA, and protein, or just DNA and RNA? What kind of RNA reads the genetic code? A DNA model appears ladder-like. What is the true shape of a DNA molecule called?
