If DNA remained in a thread-like state it would be very difficult to effectively separate all the individual strands during any type of cell division. Discrete chromosomes created during the pachytene phase are much easier to separate cleanly.

Information for the operation of the cell is encoded in linear structures called?
DNA is threadlike, but it's packaged into chromatin when the cell is operating normally and chromosomes when the cell is dividing.
What is located in the nucleus and contain DNA?
Technically the nucleus is the major part of a cell that holds the DNA of a cell, but it does sepatare into a form of multiple linear molecules of DNA that merge into the chromosomes. So, basically the nucleus and chromosomes contain DNA.
DNA and proteins are packaged into organized cellular structures known as?
DNA and proteins are packaged and organized into chromosomes. Just to clarify generally protein is everywhere, but is made within a cell in organelles called ribosomes.
How do you tell when a cell is undergoing division?
The DNA is visible and packaged as chromosomes.
How are DNA and chromosomes related?
DNA and chromsones are practically the same thing the DNA is held within the chromosomes DNA is in the chromosomes. The chromosomes who the information from the DNA.
DNA is packaged into structures called?
Answer:chromatin not chromosomes. :DIt Is Chromosomes Not Chromatin:]
A molecule of DNA is packaged and carried by a larger molecule called?
Chromosomes

Do chromosomes consist of both DNA and protein?
Yes, DNA is packaged into the tiny spaces of chromosomes through proteins called histones. The DNA along with histones is called chromatin. The histones are positively charged and DNA negatively charged.
DNA in the nucleus is found in structures called .?
chromosomes

Are chromosomes sexual reproductive cells?
Chromosomes aren't cells at all. Chromosomes are found within a cell's nucleus and are tightly packaged pieces of DNA. There are 23 pairs of chromosomes within each cell of the human body.
What is genetic material package in?
An organism's genetic material is packaged in its chromosomes. The genetic material can be in the form of either DNA or RNA.
How are DNA and chromosomes related?
DNA and chromsones are practically the same thing the DNA is held within the chromosomes DNA is in the chromosomes. The chromosomes who the information from the DNA.
Does DNA contain 23 chromosomes?
No. DNA doesn't contain chromosomes. Chromosomes are DNA.
