When DNA is coiled and folded and twisted into short condensed strands?
When DNA is twisted it is called a double helix and when DNA is coiled folded and twisted into short consended strands it is called alpha halix
At the end of s phase each chromosome has how many coiled dna molecules?
2 coiled DNA molecules.
Do eukaryotic chromosomes consist of circular DNA molecules complexed with positively charged nonhistone proteins?
No. Sounds as if you are describing a prokaryote chromosome.
What are DNA chains are coiled into structures called?
"chromosomes"
What is made up of DNA coiled around proteins?
Chromatin.
How many chromosomes do pies have?
There are no chromosomes in pies. A chromosome is a single piece of coiled DNA and protein. It is found in live cells only.
When dna from two sources is combined into one single piece of dna, it is known as?
Recombinant DNA.
Can you give me a function for the word chromosomes in an animal cell?
It's a single piece of DNA coiled, into either a U or X shape. It just contains DNA, that would be the function of it.
When DNA is coiled and folded and twisted into short condensed strands?
When DNA is twisted it is called a double helix and when DNA is coiled folded and twisted into short consended strands it is called alpha halix
What do chromosomes do for a cell?
A chromosome is an organized structure of DNAand Proteinthat is found in Cell_(biology).Itis a single piece of coiled DNA containing many Gene, Regulatory_sequenceand other Genetic_sequence. Chromosomes also contain DNA-bound proteins, which serve to package the DNA and control its functions.
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.
What is formed with coiled up DNA?
Coiled up DNA, combined with protein histone, forms chromosomes.
When do chromosome form?
The DNA-protein complex, called chromatin usually folds into characteristic formations called chromosomes. Each chromosome contains a single double stranded piece of DNA. Chromosomes are clearly seen during nuclear division.
Is DNA coiled?
Chromosomes
At the end of s phase each chromosome has how many coiled dna molecules?
2 coiled DNA molecules.
Do eukaryotic chromosomes consist of circular DNA molecules complexed with positively charged nonhistone proteins?
No. Sounds as if you are describing a prokaryote chromosome.
What is DNA in its coiled form?
What is DNA in it's uncoiled form
