Yes, chromosomes are made of DNA and protein molecules called histones. Edit from another user: False, they're made of material called chromatin. Edit from user #3: Chromosomes and chromatin are actually the same thing, except in different form. Both chromosomes and chromatin are made up of a strand of DNA wrapped around histone protein, except chromatin is in a long and stringy form while chromosomes are a compacted and twisted version of chromatin.
