What is it called when long strands of DNA are wrapped around themselves?

It is called DNA supercoiling. This coiling helps to compact the long strands of DNA into the small space inside a cell.


When DNA is in long strands prior to colling?

When DNA is in long strands, it typically forms chromatin structures by wrapping around histone proteins to condense into nucleosomes. This packaging allows for the long DNA strands to be compacted within the nucleus of a cell. Additionally, the chromatin structure can undergo further condensation to form chromosomes during cell division.


What are DNA strands packed into?

DNA strands are packed into structures called chromosomes. Chromosomes are made up of long strands of DNA that are tightly coiled and condensed to fit inside the nucleus of a cell.


Long strands of DNA that are uncoiled?

Chromatin are long, uncoiled strands of DNA. Chromatin contain the genetic information of the cell. Cytoplasm is the clear fluid or gel that surrounds the organelles outside the nucleus.


What is a long loose strand of DNA typical for the nucleus of a cell?

The chromatids are the threadlike strands that chromosomes of DNA take during cell division. Each of these consists of a single long strand of DNA double-helix.

Term for the group of proteins that organizes and condenses long strands of DNA into light coils?

Chromatin is the term used for the complex of DNA and proteins (such as histones) that organizes and condenses long DNA strands into compact coils, enabling efficient storage in the cell nucleus.


Is DNA found inside prokaryotic cells?

DNA is found inside prokaryotic cells freely floating in the cytoplasm. It is in long strands bundled in the cell.


How do short strands of DNA move in comparison to long strands?

Short strands of DNA move more quickly than long strands because they are smaller and can navigate through obstacles more easily.
