What is the difference between a chromosome and a DNA molecule?

The difference between a chromosome and a DNA molecule is that a chromosome is a single DNA molecule associated with proteins and a DNA molecule is a long thin molecule that stores genetic information.


How do DNA molecules appear in the chromosome?

DNA molecules appear in the chromosome as tightly coiled structures called chromatin. The DNA is wrapped around proteins called histones, forming nucleosomes. The nucleosomes are then packaged together into a more condensed structure known as chromatin, which ultimately makes up the chromosome.
