Where do you find chromosomes in cells?

Answer 1

One can not find a chromosome ON a cell; however, one may find a chromosome inside the cell, specifically the nucleus (during interphase, but the chromosome is actually referred to chromatin in this state). If the cell is undergoing mitosis or meiosis, the chromosome may be found anywhere throughout the cell as the nucleus does not exist during periods of divisio.

Answer 2

In eukaryotic cells (plants, animals, and fungi) most chromosomes are in the nucleus.

There are also small circular chromosomes in the mitochondria and chloroplasts.

In prokaryotic cells, there is usually only one chromosome, in the nucleoid region of the cytoplasm. The cholera bacterium has two chromosomes.

Answer 3

Chromosomes can be found in cells. They are found in the nucleus (the control center) of most cells. They can also be found in the mitochondria (the power plant) of animal cells, and the chloroplasts (solar-power plant) of plant cells.

Red blood cells are a notable exception. As they have no nucleus and no mitochondria once fully developed, they contain no chromosomes!

Some forms of life (archaea and bacteria) do not have clearly-defined cell nuclei. An area (un-bounded by a membrane) called the nucleoid (ie- "nucleus-like"), is where the greatest concentration of genetic material can be found in these organisms.

Answer 4

They are found in the DNA, which is also located in the nucleus of the cell.

Answer 5

When cell under go mitosis or meiosis.In prophase chromosomes become visible under light microscope.

Answer 6

Chromosomes are found inside the nucleus of a cell. They are made up of DNA and protein and contain genetic information that controls the cell's activities and functions.

Answer 7

In the cell's nucleus !!!!!!!!!!!
