What is the difference between DNA strands and DNA nucleus?

There is no such thing called a DNA nucleus. I assume you mean DNA found in the nucleus. The DNA that's found in the nucleus are many DNA strands all bunched up.


Where is the largest amount of DNA stored in a plant cell?

The largest amount of DNA in a plant cell is found in the nucleus. The nucleus contains the majority of the plant cell's genetic material, organized into chromosomes. DNA is also found in other organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts, but the nuclear DNA accounts for the most significant portion.

Nucleus controls most of the cell process. It also contains the hereditary information called DNA.


What role do proteins in enabling the enormous amount of DNA in a eukaryote cell to fit into the nucleus and what are those proteins called?

DNA that is not being "used" by the cell is wrapped up around proteins called histones.


DNA is often tightly wound into structures called?

DNA is located in chromosomes inside the nucleus of a cell. This is called nuclear DNA. An organism's complete set of nuclear DNA is called its genome. Humans have a small amount of DNA found in structures mitochondria, which generates the energy the cell needs to function properly.


Where DNA is stored in an eukaryotic cell?

In eukaryotic cells, DNA is stored within the nucleus. The DNA is organized into chromosomes and is surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Proteins called histones help package the DNA into a compact structure called chromatin.
