What is threads of condensed DNA?
The threads, chromatin, are coiled into a tight dense mass of DNA to form a chromosome.
What is a structure joining two threads of a chromosome?
centromere
What is a X chromosome?
If an individual has the chromosome series XY, that individual would be a male. The Y chromosome is passed down from the father and the X is passed from the mother. The X chromosome contains all hereditary factors while the Y chromosome doesn't contain much genetical information at all, except the fact if Y chromosome is present that individual will be a male. This is all only true for Humans. Dosophilla (fruit flies) have different chromosomal expressions.
How do chromosome mutations affect an individual?
Chromosome mutations can result in changes in the number of chromosomes in a cell or changes in the structure of a chromosome. Unlike a gene mutation which alters a single gene or larger segment of DNA on a chromosome, chromosome mutations change and impact the entire chromosome.
