the strands are a lot tinier than the nucleus of a cheek cell
It is called a chromatid.Two chromatids are hold by centromere.
The two strands of a double-stranded chromosome are called chromatids. Each chromatid contains a single DNA molecule that is duplicated and bound to its sister chromatid at the centromere.
The area where the duplicated strands join is called the "replication fork." This is where the DNA helicase unwinds the DNA double helix, creating two single strands that serve as templates for the synthesis of new DNA strands.
In a cell, the tangles of long strands of DNA form the
The DNA has a structure called a Double Helix which is then "unzipped" by different enzymes which leaves 2 strands. The DNA strands serves as a template for a new strand as once the strands are translated so like coding for DNA. ATGCGTATA is translated to TACGCATAT then the strand is then built so that you are left with 2 identical DNA molecules.
No, DNA is a double-stranded molecule consisting of two strands that are twisted together in a helical structure.
no dna s are of double strands only
no dna s are of double strands only
Helicase is the enzyme responsible for separating the double-stranded DNA into single strands during DNA replication. It works by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the two strands, allowing them to unwind and separate.
The two strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds. Heat causes disruption of these bonds and therefore separation of the strands. This separation is called denaturation, or, rather strangely, melting. It has nothing to do with normal melting.
Of course they can
The chromatids are the threadlike strands that chromosomes of DNA take during cell division. Each of these consists of a single long strand of DNA double-helix.
Because DNA is so small you see big clumps with the human eye.

Yes, DNA is double-stranded.There are two strands. Each one is a polymer (series) of nucleotides, and the two strands twine round one another to form the DNA molecule.
