What proportion in eukaryotic cells code for proteins or structural RNA?
less than 2%
What packages DNA and proteins in a eukaryotic nuclei?
DNA is in chromosomes.They are super coiled in chromosomes.
How are chromosomes and chromatin related?
Chromosomes are structures within the nuclei of eukaryotic cells that contain DNA combined with proteins. Chromatin refers to the actual material of the chromosomes, the DNA plus the proteins.
DNA in the nucleus is found in structures called .?
chromosomes
What is the difference between chromatin and chromosome?
A chromosome is a strand of DNA with proteins, that is usually found within the cell's nucleus. On the other hand, chromatin is a mass of genetic material containing DNA, RNA, and various proteins that forms chromosomes.**before mitosis, the DNA is loose in the nucleus in the form of chromatin. When the DNA begins to undergo mitosis the chromatin condenses to form the chromosome.The difference between chromatin and chromosomes is that chromosomes help to make up chromatin. Chromatin is made up of DNA and proteins, and is what makes the nucleus of a cell. Chromosomes make up the DNA.
Eukaryotic chromosomes consist of this and DNA?
Proteins
A structure found in the nucleus that is made of DNA?
Chromosomes - structures composed of DNA and proteins found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Chromosomes carry the genetic material. Chromosomes - structures composed of DNA and proteins found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Chromosomes carry the genetic material.

Do eukaryotic chromosomes consist of circular DNA molecules complexed with positively charged nonhistone proteins?
No. Sounds as if you are describing a prokaryote chromosome.
What structure in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells made of DNA?
Chromosomes are made up of DNA.Histone proteins are also used.
What basic protein forms the unit around which DNA is coiled in the nucleosomes of eukaryotic chromosomes?
Histones and other associated proteins
DNA in the nucleus is found in structures called .?
chromosomes
In eukaryotic chromosomes DNA is tightly coiled around proteins called?
The "beads on a string" are called nucleosomes.
What is the chromosome is?
Chromosomes are structures composed of DNA and proteins. They carry the genetic information of the cell. In eukaryotic cells they are located in the nucleus.
Where is the chromosome located within the eukaryote cell?
In eukaryotic cells chromosomes are found within the nucleus. The only exception to this is during mitosis (i.e. cell division) when the nuclear membrane disappears and the chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate and then move towards opposite direction in anaphase. Reaching the telophase these are again surrounded by the nuclear envelop.
