DNA
The tightly coiled structure that contains hereditary material in a cell is the chromosome. Chromosomes are composed of DNA and proteins, and they carry genetic information that determines an organism's traits.
With the exception of bacteria cells, hereditary material is held in the cell's nucleus.
Chromosomes, which are made of DNA and proteins, hold hereditary information in the cell's nucleus. DNA contains the genetic instructions that determine an organism's traits.
A strand of hereditary material surrounded by protein is typically referred to as a virus. In this context, the hereditary material can be either DNA or RNA, and it is enclosed within a protective protein coat called a capsid. This structure allows the virus to infect host cells and replicate, utilizing the host's cellular machinery to produce new viral particles. The combination of genetic material and protein is essential for the virus's ability to propagate and evolve.

The tightly coiled structure that contains hereditary material in a cell is the chromosome. Chromosomes are composed of DNA and proteins, and they carry genetic information that determines an organism's traits.
The structure in the nucleus that contains hereditary material is the chromosome. Chromosomes are long, organized structures that are made of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
The DNA is the hereditary material that carries the "code" to a cell's activities and structure.
