Question

Both eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells possess DNA and engage in genetic processes. Which of the following is true of their cellular genetics?

Answer 1

Eukaryotic DNA is linear and some prokaryotic DNA are circular.

Answer 2

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

" Both eukaryotes and prokaryotes possess DNA and engage in genetic processes.  Which of the following is true of their cellular genetics? a. eukaryotic and eukaryotic DNA use different genetic codes (nucleotides) b. eukaryotic cells generally require fewer genes to operate than prokaryotic cells c. eukaryotic DNA is linear where most prokaryotic DNA is circular d. prokaryotic DNA cannot be translated into proteins because of the lack of a nucleus"

Answer:

Eukaryotic DNA is linear where most prokaryotic DNA is circular

Explanation:

Prokaryotic or prokaryotic cells, also called protocells, are very different from eukaryotes. Its main characteristic is the absence of a library individualizing the cell nucleus, due to the absence of some organelles and the small size that is believed to be due to the fact that they do not have membranous compartments originated by evagination or invagination. They also have DNA in the circular form, of a ring not associated with proteins (as in eukaryotic cells, in which DNA is arranged in spiral filaments and associated with histones).

Eukaryotic or eukaryotic cells, also called euucellas, are more complex than prokaryotes. They have individualized nuclear membrane and several types of organelles, in addition, it has nucleus and linear DNA. Most of the animals and plants we are used to have this type of cell.
