antiparallel - description of a DNA molecule where the two strands run in opposite directions to each other, chloroplasts - small structures inside eukaryotic cells that are the site of photosynthesis, chromosomes - contains the genetic material of an organism encoded into DNA. Eukaryotic cells have linear ones in their nuclei & circular one in their mitochondra and chloroplasts. Prokaryotic cells have a circular one in their cytoplasm., DNA - a double stranded molecule made up from chemical units called nucleotides. It holds the genetic code in living organisms, eukaryotic - cells with a membrane bound nucleus containing DNA in linear chromosomes which are tightly coiled and packaged with associated proteins., mitochondria - these are present in eukaryotic cells, they contain small circular chromosomes and are the site of aerobic respiration., nucleotide - basic unit of DNA consisting of a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group and a base, plasmids - extra circular loops of genetic material (DNA) found in prokaryotic organisms and the eukaryote yeast, prokaryote - cell type with no nucleus. Includes bacteria & archaea. These cells contain a circular chromosome and plasmids., yeast - these are 'special' eukaryotic cells with linear chromosomes in their nuclei and a circular chromosome in their mitochondria and they have plasmids in their cytoplasm, histone - the type of protein that eukaryotic linear DNA is packaged with in chromosomes ,
