Yes. DNA and RNA are present and absolutely essential for all life on Earth. The only possible exception is that some viruses only have RNA, but viruses really are at the edge of what can considered to be life - indeed many would say they fall beneath the living organism threshold.

∙ 13y agoYes, they do. All living things have genes.
Humans, a type of animal, have about 30, 000 genes in our DNA.
Yeast, a type of fungus, has about 6 000, with some fungi having as low as 15 genes.

∙ 7y agoYes, all living things use DNA to store their genetic information.
The only possible exception to this is a small number of very tiny viruses (e.g. HIV) that use RNA instead, but in many ways viruses are not considered to be "living" as they have no metabolism and can only replicate by parasitizing living cells.

What do fungi have in common with plants?
Fungi are not plants.
What are organisms such ad bacteria and fungi that are decomposers called?
Bacteria are single celled prokaryotes that have their DNA loose in the cytosol and no membrane bound organelles. Fungi are eukaryotes with a membrane bound nucleus containing DNA and many membrane bound organelles. Some fungi are single celled, but most are multicelled and heterotrophic.
What nucleic acid is found in fungi?
There are many are found. Both DNA and RNA also found
Are fungi cell nulceus present or absent?
Fungi have a cell nucleus. Like all eukaryotic organisms, fungi have cells with a distinct membrane-bound nucleus that contains their genetic material. The nucleus is responsible for regulating the cell's activities and storing the DNA.
Do fungi have in common with plants?
They are eukaryotes, multicellular, have nuclei, and have cell walls. Their cells have nuclei that contain DNA --- nova net
What are the chromosomes of fungi made of?
DNA and Proteins. Chromosomes in organisms are composed of DNA and protein
What is the genetic material in fungi -Phomopsis vexans?
DNA
What do fungi have in common with plants?
Fungi are not plants.
Can fungi conduct photosynthesis?
yes When the fungi DNA is cut open by restriction enzymes, you can insert a DNA of a plant, green algae or any organism that undergoes photosynthesis by cutting open it's DNA by restriction enzymes and combining the two open strands of DNA by enzyme T4 DNA Ligase.

What are the three similarities between fungi and animals?
They are living, they grow, and they are eaten. Or...they use DNA, RNA and protein
The difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA?
The difference is that eukaryotic DNA is organized into a well defined nucleus and prokaryotic DNA is not. An example of a prokaryote is bacteria (or a bacterium). Humans and fungi are eukaryotes. Prokaryotes also do not have introns (DNA that is not expressed), while Eukaryotes do.
Where does DNA exist in a cell?
== == = Cell nucleus = Eukaryotic organisms (animals, plants, fungi, and protists) store most of their DNA inside the cell nucleus and some of their DNA in organelles, such as mitochondria or chloroplasts. Prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) store their DNA in the cytoplasm
What are the similarities of eukaryote prokaryote and viruses?
They all contain DNA in there genetic material
