How are DNA and chromosomes related?

Chromosomes are structures composed of DNA and proteins that are found in the nucleus of cells. DNA is coiled around proteins called histones to form chromatin, which further condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Chromosomes contain the genetic information in the form of DNA that determines an organism's traits.
