Histones are proteins that aid the condensation of the DNA. Condensation makes the DNA more compact so it would fit in the cells. In this compaction process, DNA is winded around these proteins.

In eukaryotic cells each chromosome has?
centromere, histone proteins, telomeres
Structure of nucleosome and extent of chromatin condensation in metaphase chromosome?
nucleosomes are DNA bound by histone.....
What include the DNA molecules chromosomes nucleosomes histones?
A choromosome is made up of DNA strand and the folding of DNA to form a choromosome is done with the help of histone proteins so DNA with histone forms nucleosome which give rise to a structure known as chromosome
A special protein that forms part of the structure of a chromosome?
Most notably, the Histone proteins which, along with Dna, form the core of the 10 nm fibers.
How do chromosomes turn into DNA?
Replication chemicals trigger during cell replication trigger DNA to wrap tightly around histone octamers (histone proteins) to create nucleosomes, for DNA synthesis. This happens during the prophase stage of cell replication.
Does ATP contain histone?
No, it does not.
In eukaryotic cells each chromosome has?
centromere, histone proteins, telomeres
Does a prokaryotic cell have DNA?
Yes, but Single circular chromosome and lacks histone.
What does chromain contain?
DNA and Protein Histone
Structure of nucleosome and extent of chromatin condensation in metaphase chromosome?
nucleosomes are DNA bound by histone.....
How does DNA and the histone proteins interact to form the chromosome?
the dna is inserted into the active sites of the proteins which causes it to for the chrosmosome.
Where in the cell are chromoseomes located?
They are in the nucleus.They contain DNA and histone proteins.
what cell contain only one sex chromosome?
In males, sperm contain only one sex chromosome. In females, eggs contain only one sex chromosome.
What is the fundamental repeating unit of organization in a eukaryotic chromosome?
The nucleosome is the basic unit that organizes the structure of an eukaryotic chromosome. The nucleosome is DNA wrapped around histone proteins which allows the DNA to condense into chromosomes.
What include the DNA molecules chromosomes nucleosomes histones?
A choromosome is made up of DNA strand and the folding of DNA to form a choromosome is done with the help of histone proteins so DNA with histone forms nucleosome which give rise to a structure known as chromosome
A special protein that forms part of the structure of a chromosome?
Most notably, the Histone proteins which, along with Dna, form the core of the 10 nm fibers.
Eukaryotic chromosomes contain both DNA and protein tightly packed together to form a substance called?
The complex of both histone and non-histone chromosomal proteins and DNA is known as chromatin.
