Which molecule is wound up to make a chromosome?
DNA molecule is wound up around proteins called histones to form a structure known as a chromosome. This coiling helps condense the DNA for efficient storage and organization within the cell.
What is another name for the twisted-ladderr structure of DNA?
Double Helix
What was Watson and cricks name for twisted-ladder of DNA?
Watson and Crick's Name for the twisted ladder of DNA
What molecule has the shape of a double strand helix?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) has a double helix structure, in which two strands of nucleotides are wound around each other. This helical structure is responsible for carrying genetic information in living organisms.
What is wound up DNA called?
Wound up DNA is called chromatin. Chromatin is a complex of DNA, RNA, and proteins found within the nucleus of a cell. It is the form in which DNA is packaged to fit within the limited space of the nucleus.
Which molecule is wound up to make a chromosome?

A portion of a DNA molecule wound around a spool of histone protein is called a?
Such a structure is called a Nucleosome
From what does DNA get its name?
DNA gets its name from its chemical structure, which is called deoxyribonucleic acid.
In living organisms DNA consists of two complementary strands wound together in a specific structure called a .?
double helix
What is the name of the structure that DNA will condense into?
A chromosome
DNA consists of two complementary strands wound together in a specific structure called a?
double helix
Is DNA made if chromosomes?
No. DNA is what chromosomes are made of. DNA is wound around proteins like thread on a spool, but since DNA is one long"string", the DNA is wound around many protein "spools", all of which are connected by DNA. This string of DNA/protein "thread on spools" is wound around itself, and wound around itself, and wound around itself a lot more, then (after a pretty intricate process) Wala! You have a chromosome.

What scientific name of the structure of DNA?
Deoxyribonucleic Acid
What is the name for strands of DNA wound around proteins?
The name for strands of DNA wound around proteins is chromatin. Chromatin is made up of DNA and proteins called histones, which help organize and condense the genetic material within the cell nucleus.
What cell structure is made up of the genetic material?
Chromosomes are long, wound up strands of the genetic material, DNA.
What is the structure of chromatin, specifically referring to DNA wrapped around histone proteins?
Chromatin is a complex structure made up of DNA wrapped around histone proteins. The DNA is tightly wound around the histones, forming nucleosomes. These nucleosomes are further organized into higher order structures, ultimately creating the chromatin fiber. This structure helps to compact and regulate the expression of genes within the DNA.
