Threadlike structures in the nucleus contain DNA?

Chromatin or chromatin threads are the threadlike structures that are found in the nucleus. They contain DNA which is a genetic material.


Where and in what form is eukaryotic DNA found?

DNA is stored in threadlike, tangled structures called chromatin inside the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. During mitosis, chromatin changes into structures called chromosomes. Each time the cell divides, the genetic information carried by the chromosomes is passed to the two newly formed cells, where it is stored as DNA in their nuclei.


Is chromatin an organelle?

Yes it is an organelle.


Where in the nucleus is the genetic material found?

Genetic material, composed of DNA that is packaged into string-like structures called chromatin, makes up a region called the nucleolus, which is inside the nucleus of a cell.In eukaryotes, the genetic material is found within the nucleus of the cell in a form of chromatins. In prokaryotes, the genetic material is suspended in a region known as nucleoid and also contains circular DNA called plasmids.


What is found inside a eukaryotic cells nucleus?

Inside a eukaryotic cell's nucleus, you would typically find the cell's genetic material (DNA) organized into structures called chromosomes. The nucleus also contains a dense region called the nucleolus, where ribosomal RNA synthesis occurs. Additionally, the nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope, which regulates the movement of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
