Technically yes, but only in the sense that without chromatin, you can't have flagella. Here is why:
Chromatin is a structure of DNA. A cell is replicates, either by meiosis or mitosis, it first collects its DNA into organized structures to make the equal transfer between the two daughter cells easier. These structures, made of tightly coiled, inaccessable, highly organized bundles of DNA, are called chromatin. Once the cell divides, the chromatin unwinds, allowing the cell to access the DNA code again.
Flagella are an external stucture on a cell's membrane. They are composed of proteins, which are made using an amino acid sequence encoded in the DNA. So, without the DNA (which has at some point been bundled into chromatin), you can't have flagella.

What is the whip-like tail called?
Flagella. Flagella Flagellum (flagella is the plural form) flagella
What structure is composed of DNA and protein?
chromatin / chromosones!
What does Chromatin condense of?
Chromatin can't "condense of" anything, chromatin can condense into Chromosomes.
When the DNA in a cell is uncoiled and spread throughout the nucleus it is called?
The most tightly-coiled form of DNA is a chromosome.
DNA that is spread out in a non dividing cell is called?
Chromatin Chromatin
In what pairs are the terms not related a nucleus-DNA b chloroplasts-chlorophyll c flagella-chromatin d cell wall- cellulose?
Flagella do not contain chromatin.
Do anaerobic bacteria have flagella?
Some methanogenic bacteria (which are anaerobic) do have flagella. You can read more in the related link
Is gram staining related to flagella?
No. It is a staining on the cell itself.
How are chromosomes and chromatin related?
Chromosomes are structures within the nuclei of eukaryotic cells that contain DNA combined with proteins. Chromatin refers to the actual material of the chromosomes, the DNA plus the proteins.
Can you use the Word Chromatin in a sentence?
The word "chromatin" can be used in many ways in a sentence; for example, as a way of indicating its molecular significance: "Chromatin performs important DNA-related functions for cells." It can also be used more generally, such as in the following sentence: "The student was required to prepare a report on 'chromatin' for the next class."
