The genetic material of all eukaryotes is found inside a  nucleusgenecytoplasmloop. The genetic material, specifically  DNAglyceridesribosomesproteins, is stored on  cell membranesspindleschromosomesribosomes. Each of these is responsible for storing many  genesmitochondrianucleistructures. In a normal animal body cell, these exist as  pairsloopsthreesplasmids.

During cell division, DNA is  lostdividedtranslatedreplicated so that there is enough available to share between the cells. Each  chromosomeenzymemoleculeplasmid is replicated, and the cell parts responsible for cell functions are  destroyedtranslatedunusedmultiplied.
