Chromatin is intertwinted mass of fine thread-like structure made of DNA and protein. During cell division (mitosis and meiosis), chromatin condenses to form thicker rod-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two similar halves called chromatids. Formation of chromosomes having two similar halves or chromatids is meant for equitable distribution of chromatin which is hereditary material.

What is the relationship between chromatin and chromosomes?

Chromatin is a complex of DNA and proteins in the nucleus of a cell, while chromosomes are condensed and visible structures of chromatin during cell division. Chromosomes are formed from condensed chromatin to allow for organized and efficient segregation of genetic material. Essentially, chromosomes are the condensed form of chromatin.


How are chromosomes and chromatin related?

Chromosomes are structures within the nuclei of eukaryotic cells that contain DNA combined with proteins. Chromatin refers to the actual material of the chromosomes, the DNA plus the proteins.


Threadlike coils of chromosomes?

Threadlike coils of chromosomes are called chromatin, which is composed of DNA and associated proteins. Chromatin undergoes further condensation during cell division to form distinct chromosomes. The chromosomes contain the genetic material necessary for cell functions and are essential for the accurate transmission of genetic information to daughter cells.
