Best Answer

DNA organization of Eukaryotes has the nucleic acids A pair with T and C pair with T in a double helix formation. Proteins help keep this all together along with hydrogen bonds holding the subunits of DNA together while covalent (strong) bonds hold the two strands together to make the double helix.

What stores a molecule called DNA?

In eukaryotes, DNA is stored in the nucleus. In prokaryotes, the DNA is in the cytoplasm, though it may be bunched up in a structure called a nucleoid, which has no membrane around it.


What structure is present in both prokaryota and eukaryota?

Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes both have cell membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes and DNA


How is the DNA in a prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukaryotes?

DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually circular while DNA in eukaryotes is usually linear. DNA in prokaryotes usually has fewer portions that dont code for something while eukaryotes usually have quite a bit of DNA sections that dont code for anything. The number of actual base pairs (the units that makeup DNA) that makeup eukaryotes is usually quite a bit more than the number in prokaryotic DNA.

How is the DNA in a prokaryote different form a eukaryote?

Eukaryotes have linear DNA and Prokaryotes have circular DNA that are both arranged into a double helix. This double helix is wrapped around histone proteins which forms a structure known as "beads on a string." This is further compacted into a solenoid structure that forms loops that eventually makes a miniband which is compacted into chromosomes.


What is the location of DNA in a living cell?

In eukaryotes, it's housed inside the nucleus. In prokaryotes, it's suspended in the nucleoid region.

What structure in the nucleus holds the DNA?

The DNA molecule forms a double helix. The linear DNA chromosomes of eukaryotes form a highly supercoiled double helix.
