Are chromosomes strands of DNA?

Each chromosome has a single strand of DNA.


Where do the 2 strands of the parent DNA end up in the daughter chromosome after DNA replication?

Each parent DNA strand serves as a template for a new complementary strand during DNA replication. As a result, in the daughter chromosomes, one strand is derived from the parent and the other is newly synthesized. This ensures that each daughter chromosome receives one original parental DNA strand and one newly synthesized DNA strand.


What is the Thread like strand made of DNA called?

The thread-like strand made of DNA is called a chromosome. Chromosomes are structures within cells that contain the genetic material needed for growth, development, and function. Humans normally have 46 chromosomes in each cell.


How many DNA strands constitute a chromosome?

What do long strand of DNA in cells form?

a chromosome


What is an individual strand of chorosome called?

An individual strand of chromosome is called a chromatid. Chromatids are the two identical DNA molecules that make up a duplicated chromosome. During cell division, chromatids separate from each other and are allocated to each daughter cell.


What are some explanations of chromosome?

A single strand of bunched up DNA


During cell division each single long strand of DNA becomes fully condensed in the form of a?

During interphase, DNA replicates and becomes fully condensed in the form of sister chromatids. When the sister chromatids separate, they will each be called a chromosome.


What is the long strand of DNA and protein?

The long strand of DNA and protein is called a chromosome. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and contain genes that carry genetic information. They condense and become visible during cell division.


During DNA replications a complementary strand of DNA is made for each original DNA strand thus if a portion of the original strand is CCTAGCT then the new strand will be?

GGATCGA. Each base in the original DNA strand pairs with its complementary base (A with T and C with G) in the new strand during DNA replication.


At the end of replication each new DNA molecule is composed of?

After DNA replication, each new molecule has one strand of the original DNA molecule and the other strand is composed of new nucleic acids. This is due to the semi-conservative replication of DNA.
