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.

∙ 13y agoDNA is made up of chromosomes. A chromosome is a single piece of coiled DNA. You get one chromosome from your mother and one from your father. If you get an x and a y chromosome then you are a boy, and if you get two x chromosomes, you are a girl.

What is a single molecule of DNA and associated proteins?
a Chromosome
Which molecule is wound up to make a chromosome?
DNA molecule
What is the most broadest category to most specific category in genetic material in DNA?
genome -> chromosome -> DNA -> gene
Number of DNA molecules in a chromosomes?
Type your answer here... 46 dna molecule are present in a chromosome
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.

DNA molecule
How many DNA molecules are in a chromosomes?
There is one double helix DNA molecule per chromosome.
A molecule of DNA is packaged and carried by a larger molecule called a?
Chromosome
How many DNA molecule in a chromatid?
Each chromosome is originally made of one DNA molecule.

What difference between chromosome of prokaryote and eukaryote?
Chromosomes of eukaryotes are composed of DNA and protein. Chromosomes of prokaryotes have DNA only.
What is the difference between cytidine in DNA and cytidine in RNA?
Cytidine is composed of one molecule each of cytosine and ribose. The cytosine molecule is the same between DNA and RNA, the difference is in the sugar backbone. In RNA it is ribose while in DNA it is deoxyribose.
How many DNAmolecules make up each original chromosome?
A chromosome is formed from a single DNA molecule.
Number of DNA molecules in a chromosomes?

Where in a cell are prokaryotic chromosomes found?
The region of the cytoplasm containing the DNA is called the nucleoid. The term "nucleus" is not appropriate, as there is no nuclear membrane.In bacteria there is a single chromosome, except in the interval between DNA replication and cell division. The chromosome is called circular, meaning that there are no free ends; the DNA molecule is in a loop.
