Map Units. Map units don't technically measure a distance, but rather the probability of a split in the chromosome between two loci. But the probability and distance are directly proportional. I don't know of any other term you might use.

Which term defines the distance between two genes on a single chromosomes?
genetic identity
What is the difference between a chromosome and a DNA molecule?

What is a single molecule of DNA and associated proteins?
a Chromosome
What simple chromosome does a prokaryote have?
Single
How can you tell the difference between the original and replicated part of each chromosome?
In late anaphase and G1 of interphase, a chromosome is unreplicated and consists of a single DNA double helix. A replicated chromosome contains two identical DNA double helices.
What is a single continuous strand of DNA?
a chromosome :]
What is a single arm of a chromosome called?
chromatid
What does a Barr body in a mammalian female cell represents?
x chromosome... since female body has single type of chromosome, X chromosome
Can a single gene control a sigle trait?
Its possible. A single gene defines a single protein.
How many DNAmolecules make up each original chromosome?
A chromosome is formed from a single DNA molecule.
Why are chromosome always an even number in organisms?
No, some bacteria and other unicellular organisms have a single chromosome
How does a single chromatoid differ from an x-shaped duplicated chromosome?
A Chromatid is a single section or "half" of the intended Chromosome. It contains half of the genetic material of a full Chromosome. Two Chromatids are generally bound together with a Centromere in order to form a fully functional X Chromosome.
