Question

How is the DNA different in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells?

Answer 1

Deoxyribonucleic acid, more commonly known as DNA, is a complex molecule that contains all of the information necessary to build and maintain an organism. All living things have DNA within their cells.

Complete answer:
DNA, or Deoxyribonucleic acid, is the genetic material found in all organisms. It is found within the nucleus of a cell and contains the instructions required for an organism to develop. It is a double-stranded, helical structure made up of four nucleotide bases, two purines (Adenine and Guanine), and two pyrimidines (Thymine and Cytosine). The strands of DNA are antiparallel.

The design and synthetic structure of the DNA in both the eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells are extraordinary. The prokaryotic cells have no core, no organelles and an exceptionally limited quantity of DNA. Then again, the eukaryotic cells have core and cell organelles, and the measure of DNA present is huge.

Prokaryotic DNA	Eukaryotic DNA
Is discovered unreservedly in the cytoplasm (inside a locale called the nucleoid)	Is contained inside a core
Is stripped (for example not bound with proteins and hence doesn't frame chromatin)	Is bound to histone proteins
Genomes are minimized (contain minimal dreary DNA and no introns)	Genomes contain a lot of non-coding and monotonous DNA (counting introns)
Contains extrachromosomal plasmids	Try not to contain plasmids (yet organelles, for example, the mitochondria may contain their own chromosomes)
Transposons are not found in prokaryotic DNA.	Transposons are found in eukaryotic DNA.

Note: DNA in eukaryotic cells is normally direct (ie. Chromosome), while DNA in prokaryotic cells is generally round (one end gets interface with the opposite end). In any case, the phosphodiester spine and purine/pyrimidine bases are the equivalent.
