What else can I help you with?
Are chromosomes strands of DNA?
Each chromosome has a single strand of DNA.
What are the two strands of a chromosome called?
The two identical strands of a chromosome are called chromatids. DNA replication occurs in the interphase stage of the cell cycle.
What is the region of a chromosome holding the two double strands of replicated DNA together called?
The region of a chromosome holding the two double strands of replicated DNA together is called a centromere. The complex of DNA and protein that makes up eukaryotic chromosome is properly called chromatin.
How can you tell whether a chromosome has doubled?
You can tell a chromosome has doubled because of the DNA's strands. They coil very tightly.
How many DNA strands do goldfish have?
10000 DNA strands.
What are long strands of nuclear material that contain DNA called?
It's called a Chromosome
When cell chromosome become visible what are the duplicate strands of DNA called?
Daughter Chromosomes
The two coiled up strands of DNA within a chromosome are called?
The two coiled up strands of DNA within a chromosome are called chromatids. During cell division, chromatids separate and are distributed to daughter cells.
How many strands are there in DNA?
DNA is made up of two strands.
Why can't the terms gene and chromosome be used interchangeably?
Genes are specific segments of DNA that encode for specific traits or proteins, while chromosomes are structures made of DNA and proteins that package and organize the genetic material in a cell. A chromosome can contain many genes, and genes are located at specific positions along a chromosome. Therefore, while genes and chromosomes are related, they are not the same and cannot be used interchangeably.
How many strands are there at the beginning of DNA replication?
At the beginning of DNA replication there are two strands of DNA nucleotides.
Each human chromosome is replicated in about how many sections?
Each human chromosome is typically replicated in multiple sections called replication origins. These origins are sites along the chromosome where the DNA double helix unwinds and new DNA strands are synthesized during DNA replication.
