∙ 11y agoDNA - deoxyribonucleic acid, the chain of nucleic acids that encodes all proteins and regulatory sequences for an organism
centrimere - the spot in the middle of a condensed chromosome during mitosis or meiosis where the two chromatids are held together
chromatid - one half of a chromosome
chromatin - the 'unravelled' DNA during cell growth phases
All in two sentences: DNA is a chain of nucleic acids that is generally arranged in loose coils called chromatin. However, during cellular division, the DNA is copied and then condensed into matching chromatids held together at the centrimere in chromosomes until anaphase, when the sister chromatids are pulled apart and the cytoplasm starts to divide.

Chromosomes and chromatids are related in that one is the duplicate of another. A chromatid comes about when chromosomes are duplicated. It holds replicated DNA of every single chromosome that is joined.
Chromosomes are structures composed of DNA and proteins that are found in the nucleus of cells. DNA is coiled around proteins called histones to form chromatin, which further condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Chromosomes contain the genetic information in the form of DNA that determines an organism's traits.
Flagella and chromatin are not directly related. Flagella are long, whip-like appendages that help with cellular movement, while chromatin is the complex of DNA and proteins that makes up a cell's chromosomes. They serve different functions within a cell.
The 22 pairs of chromosomes that aren't the sex chromosomes are known as the autosomal chromosomes. The X and Y chromosomes are the sex chromosomes.
Different creatures have different numbers of chromosomes; chromosomes are always diploid, or found in matching pairs. The number of chromosomes is in no way related to the complexity of the organism. For instance, fruit flies have eight chromosomes, humans have forty-six, butterflies have 380, and ferns have a remarkable 1200 chromosomes.

Chromatin is intertwinted mass of fine thread-like structure made of DNA and protein. During cell division (mitosis and meiosis), chromatin condenses to form thicker rod-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two similar halves called chromatids. Formation of chromosomes having two similar halves or chromatids is meant for equitable distribution of chromatin which is hereditary material.
Chromosomes are condensed structures made up of tightly packed chromatin, which is a complex of DNA and proteins. During cell division, chromatin condenses to form visible chromosomes, which contain the genetic material necessary for cell reproduction and function.
chromosomes are the things you inherited from your parents. 23 pairs. 46 total. (like 23 pairs of socks) chromatids are the individual chromosomes in a pair (so like having two red socks, two blue socks. one red sock is a sister chromatid to the other red sock, and same with the two blue socks.) chromatin is the strands of DNA combined with proteins that make up the chromosome (the thread used to make the socks) BY-Arindam Jain IX-A
The word "chromatin" can be used in many ways in a sentence; for example, as a way of indicating its molecular significance: "Chromatin performs important DNA-related functions for cells." It can also be used more generally, such as in the following sentence: "The student was required to prepare a report on 'chromatin' for the next class."
A looped domain is a series of chromatin fibres that are arranged into a loop. These are arranged into chromosomes. For more help view the related link.
