Used blood leaves the breasts through the veins and is pumped back to the heart and lungs to be refreshed. Lymph must also be refreshed and recycled. Lymph drains away from your breasts through the lymphatic system, which is made up of lymphatic channels and lymph nodes.
exists and is an alternate of . Chromosomes are located in the nucleus of a cell in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes (which lack a cell nucleus) chromosomes are circular in shape usually found attached to the plasmid membrane. Smaller circular DNA known as plasmids are also found in the prokaryotic cells and are thought of as smaller versions of chromosomes.
In eukaryotic cells, like in the maize cell shown here, DNA is located in the nucleus, the mitochondria and the chloroplasts (occuring only in plants and some protists). The nucleus contains most DNA. 2  It is present in this compartment in the form of linear chromosomes that together constitute the genome. 3  These chromosomes are identical and equal in number in all cells of an individual (except reproduction cells and mutated cells).
