If completely unraveled, human DNA would stretch from the Earth to the Moon.
If you stretch it and not unravel it, the distance is on average about 6 ft. (2 m) long, but is a very thin thread.
The single human chromosome on average consists of DNA molecules approximately 2 inches long.
The Physics Factbook [see link below] gives the formula of:
"The length is (length of 1 bp)(number of bp per cell) which is (0.34 nm)(6 × 109)"
What else can I help you with?
Are DNA and RNA carbohydrates?
Yes, DNA and RNA have different sugar . DNA contains deoxyribose sugar whereas RNA consists of ribose sugar, which are completely different from each other.
How many DNA molecules are in a chromosomes?
There is one double helix DNA molecule per chromosome.
What are things that make people different?
your personality, thoughts, talents, ideas, beliefs, DNA, fingerprints, humour, interests, the list is endless. we are all completely different :)
What are some things about a meter long?
If you take all the DNA from a single human cell and stretch it into a single connected line, the DNA polymer will be about 1 meter long (1.02 m to be more accurate).
What is the scientific term for the shape of the DNA strand?
The name of the shape of DNA is called double helix. There are two long strands of DNA connected in several points. These strands twist and look like a spiral or a spring.
What is the unraveled DNA called?
Chromatin, not to be confused with chromatid (one half of a chromosome).
How did oswald Avery find out that genes and chromosomes are made from DNA?

Who unraveled the structure of DNA and when?
Francis Crick and James Watson, april 25 1953
How long is DNA in a cell?
DNA is a polymer or nucleotides and so varies in length from organism to organism. In Eukaryotes the DNA is split onto many Chromosomes not just one. In Prokaryotes there are structures called Plasmids which also carry DNA. A very interesting note about how thin human DNA is compared to its length is that if you stretched it out and it was a thick as a pencil line it would reach from London to New York City. If you unraveled the DNA of all the humans on the planet, it would go from Earth to the nearest galaxy and back 60 TIMES!!!

How long are the molecules of DNA?
The length of a DNA molecule can vary depending on the organism and the specific gene sequence. On average, a single human chromosome can consist of DNA strands that are about 50 to 250 million base pairs long. Each base pair corresponds to about 0.34 nanometers in length along the DNA molecule.
When was Unraveled - film - created?
Unraveled - film - was created in 2010.
If you unraveled a eukaryotic chromosome what would you observe as it became unraveled?
If you were to unravel a eukaryotic chromosome, you would observe a tightly coiled structure made up of DNA and proteins called histones. As you continued to unravel it, you would see the DNA strand becoming more visible and elongated, revealing the genetic information encoded within the chromosome. Eventually, you would end up with a single, long DNA molecule that contains the genes and regulatory elements necessary for the cell's functions.
When does unraveled by Gena Showalter come out?
Unraveled by Gena Showalter comes out in September 2010 from Harlequin TEEN.
What molecule did James Watson and Francis Crick unravel?
James Watson and Francis Crick unraveled the structure of DNA, which is a double-helix molecule that carries genetic information in cells. Their discovery in 1953 laid the foundation for modern molecular biology.
Why does the small intestine has a lot of folds?
I know that one reason is it is super long and your body can't easily hold it in if it was unraveled.
