3. The chromosomes in the cell nucleus would contain the most radioactivity because thymine is part of the DNA molecule and chromo-somes are composed of DNA. Inclusion/Special Needs Show students a picture of a bacterial cell and an animal cell. Talk about the location of DNA in each cell and where DNA replication occurs.
Atoms with unstable nuclei are constantly changing as a result of the imbalance of energy within the nucleus. When the nucleus loses a neutron, it gives off energy and is said to be radioactive. Radioactivity is the release of energy and matter that results from changes in the nucleus of an atom.
