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.
The radioactivity is generally administered to the patient in the form of a radiopharmaceutical-the term radiotracer is also used. This follows some physiological pathway to accumulate for a short period of time in some part of the body.
