Condensed genetic material or double stranded chromatin is a chromosome. Chromosomes are long strands of DNA tightly wrapped around histone 'beads' which help to pack it down to fit within the cell. The cells of your body are absolutely tiny, but inside every one of them is close to 2 metres of DNA; so it's absolutely necessary for the body to pack it down as small as possible which is how why we end up with chromosomes. the tight structure of them also aids in making mitosis simpler for the cell.

Doubled rod of condensed chromatin?

The doubled rod of condensed chromatin is known as a chromosome. Chromosomes are tightly packed structures of DNA and protein that contain the genetic information of an organism. During cell division, chromosomes condense further to facilitate separation and distribution of genetic material to daughter cells.

What happens to the specific heat of a material if mass is doubled?

There is no change; specific heat is an intensive property of a material, independent of the amount.


What change in resistivity if length is doubled?

Resistivity is a property of a substance, and doesn't depend on the dimensions of a sample. If the length of a conductor is doubled, then its resistance doubles but its resistivity doesn't change.


What happens in young modulus of elasticity of material when load hanging onit is doubled?

When the load hanging on a material is doubled, the young modulus of elasticity remains constant. Young's modulus is a material property that measures its stiffness and is independent of the applied load. It represents the material's ability to deform elastically under stress without permanent deformation.

What are the differences between chromatin and chromosomes?

Chromatin and chromosomes are basically the same thing. The difference is that chromatin is unfolded, uncondensed, extended DNA while chromosomes are condensed DNA. Chromosomes are condensed chromatin and chromatin is unfolded chromosomes. The only difference I know is that chromatin are present normally in a cell, while chromosomes are there only when the cell is about to divide. When the cell is about to divide, the chromatin threads get organised into chromosomes. Utilizing their histone proteins to accomplish this, DNA first condenses into 10 nm strands and then into 30 nm strands, ready for Condensation and then Cytokinesis.


How the coefficient of friction between a body and a surface change if the mass of the body is doubled?

The coefficient of friction between a body and a surface does not change if the mass of the body is doubled. The coefficient of friction is a property of the material of the surfaces in contact and their interaction, not the mass of the body.

What happens to the resistance when the frequency is doubled?

When the frequency is doubled, the resistance of a circuit remains unchanged. Resistance in a circuit is independent of frequency and is determined by the material and physical dimensions of the resistor.
