In the nondividing cell, DNA tends to be a loose collection of chromatin. In the run-up to cell division, the DNA will coil itself up into distinct chromosomes.
Chromatids are identical copies of DNA that are joined together at the centromere to form a chromosome. Each chromatid carries genetic information necessary for cell division. When a cell is ready to divide, the chromatids separate and are pulled to opposite ends of the cell.
DNA coils to form chromosomes through a process called supercoiling. This involves the DNA strand wrapping around proteins called histones, which then coil up tightly to create a compact structure known as a chromosome.
Chromatin is made up of proteins and DNA. The DNA wraps around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which further coil and condense to create chromatin structure. Fats are not a major component of chromatin.
The shape of a DNA molecule formed when two twisted DNA strands are coiled into a springlike structure is a double helix. This structure resembles a twisted ladder, with the sugar-phosphate backbone forming the sides of the ladder and the paired nitrogenous bases forming the ladder's rungs.
During cell division, chromatin condenses and coils up into chromosomes through a process called supercoiling. This involves the wrapping of DNA around proteins called histones, forming nucleosomes which then further coil and condense to create the compact structure of chromosomes.
It is what prevents DNA from torsional strain or winding up tightly.

Describe the chromatic that make up a chromosome when a cell is ready to split
Chromosomes
the correct answer is 25
G1 = gap one. The newly formed daughter cell grows by adding cytoplasm and organelles. The cell performs its normal activities, depending on what kind of cell it is. Some cells never divide, and they spend their entire lives in G1. S = synthesis. The DNA is replicated to prepare for cell division. Replication means that the DNA is copied exactly so there are two complete sets of DNA to divide up. G2 = gap two. The cell grows more to get ready to divide.

One of the factors allowing DNA to fit inside the nucleus of a cell is its ability to coil and condense into a highly organized structure. DNA achieves this by wrapping around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which then coil up further to form chromatin fibers. This packaging of DNA allows it to be tightly packed within the nucleus without becoming tangled.
Chromosomes are made up of DNA. DNA wraps around proteins called histones to form structures called nucleosomes, which then coil and condense to create chromosomes. Each chromosome contains a single, long DNA molecule.
No. Note. DNA is not an animal either. Both Plants and Animals have DNA in the nucleus of their cells, DNA is the chemical that codes the instruction to build something living, the "immortal coil".
At the moment, genetic technology is very low tech compared to the possible things we could do with technology. So no. But actually, your body is constantly making more DNA as you grow because your cells divide using a process called Mitosis, look it up if you want. When the divide, you then have a new cell meaning more DNA.
