No DNA is not found outside of the nucleus in less the cell is prokaryote then there is no nucleus so the DNA is just floating around freely

No, DNA is mainly found within the nucleus of a cell. It is organized into structures called chromosomes. Some cells, like mitochondria, also contain their own DNA, but this is separate from the nuclear DNA.

What is just outside the nucleus of a animal cell?

Nuclear envelope is found. It surrounds the nucleus


The part of an atom that would be found outside the nucleus is the _______.?

The parts of the atom found outside the nucleus would be the electrons, or positrons if the nucleus of the atom is made of antimatter. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle shows us though that the electrons aren't found just in the space outside the nucleus, but in a probabilistic cloud, partly inside the nucleus.


Where is the cell wall in the plants found?

Just outside the cell membrane.


Where is cytoplasm found at?

cytoplasm is found inside a cell, just inside the cell walls. It contains all of the parts of a cell (except the nucleus ).


What is DNA where in a cell is it found?

DNA is the genetic material in all cells that tells them exactly what to do, and when to do it. It is found in the nucleus of cells. However, if a cell has no nucleus, then it is just floating around in the cytoplasm


What is a cell with nucleus called?

A cell with a nucleus is called a eukaryotic cell. Eukaryotic cells are characterized by having a defined nucleus that houses the genetic material.


Is the nucleus a part of both an atom and a cell or just one?

Both. The nucleus of a cell is its "brain" for lack of a better term. The nucleus of an atom is where the protons and neutrons are found, and is the region that the electrons orbit.


Is a chromatin found in plant cell or a animal cell?

Both. Chromatin is just the loosely wound, diffuse form of a chromosome that is the usual state in the cell's nucleus.


Where are chromosomes located in a plant cell?

Chromosomes in a plant cell are located in the nucleus, a membrane-bound organelle that houses the genetic material of the cell. The chromosomes contain the DNA that codes for the traits of the plant.


Is a chromosome a cell or a cell part?

A chromosome is just one component of a cell. In eukaryotic cells, chromosomes are found within one organelle, the nucleus, except during cell division, when the nuclear membrane breaks down and the nucleus therefore temporarily ceases to exist.


What is a cell with a nuclear membrane?

Any cell with a nucleus will have a nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane is just the outside of the nucleus - like the rubber on the outside of a rubber ball - that keeps your DNA in one place. Eukaryotes have nuclei, and therefore also have nuclear membranes. Prokaryotes (such as bacteria) do not have nuclei, and therefore don't have nuclear membranes. Their DNA floats free in the cell.


What is inside the nucleolus of a cell?

the nucleus contains the nucleolus and chromosomes. the nucleolus is just a ball of proteins and nucleic acids. it doesn't contain anything else and im pretty sure the only function is to hold spare nucleic acids for the production of RNA
