What is Chromatin's?

Chromatin is found inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Chromatin stains easily and thus from this fact it gets its name, Chromatin means 'Coloured material'. Chromatin is basically coils of DNA (Deoxyribonucleicacid) bound to protein called histone. Chromosomes during the cycle of Interphase, take form of chromatin. Chromatin condenses during cell division to form the Chromosomes. Chromatin usually loosens up and scatters and is called euchromatin and some donot loosen up and stay tightly coiled, called heterochromatin.

Hope this explanation helps. Reference is from the book Biological Sciences by Soper.
Chromatin is the combination or complex of DNA and proteins that make up the contents of the nucleus of a cell.

What is the relationship between chromatin and chromosomes?

Chromatin is a complex of DNA and proteins in the nucleus of a cell, while chromosomes are condensed and visible structures of chromatin during cell division. Chromosomes are formed from condensed chromatin to allow for organized and efficient segregation of genetic material. Essentially, chromosomes are the condensed form of chromatin.


What are the funcions of a nuclear envelope in a plant cell?

The nuclear envelope also called as the nuclear membrane is a double layered membrane enclosing the nucleus. The nuclear membrane keeps all the chromatins inside the cell and has pores to allow RNA and proteins to enter and leave the nucleus.
