There are certain regions that are tightly coiled. When the DNA is stained with a dye these regions appear in a dark band and are called hetrochromatin. They are the part of the chromosome that are not actively expressed in the cells. A heterochromatin in one cell may be functional in other cells.
A gibbon sperm cell typically contains 24 chromosomes, as gibbons have a diploid number of 48 chromosomes in their somatic cells. During fertilization, the sperm cell combines with an egg cell to form a new cell with the full complement of 48 chromosomes.
Well, they don't, actually. Hurricanes form in the more tropical regions, never the polar regions. Reason for that is basically there is more moisture in the atmosphere than in the polar regions. For a better explanation, please see the related question below.
no
The cell's chromatin condenses into chromosomes during prophase. In contrast, telophase is where the chromosomes loosen to form chromatins.
A karyotype displays the complete set of chromosomes in an organism, typically during the metaphase stage of cell division when chromosomes are most condensed and visible. At this stage, DNA is not in its chromatin form; instead, it is tightly packed into distinct, recognizable structures called chromosomes. Thus, a karyotype represents DNA in its highly condensed form rather than its relaxed chromatin state.
Prokaryotes typically have circular chromosomes, not linear ones.
The singular form of chromosomes is a chromatid.
The singular form of chromosomes is chromosome.

DNA wraps around proteins called histones to form chromosomes.
There are typically 23 chromosomes in an ootid, which is the result of meiosis II in oogenesis. The ootid contains a haploid set of chromosomes, ready to combine with a sperm to form a zygote with a complete set of 46 chromosomes.
The cell's chromatin condenses into chromosomes during prophase. In contrast, telophase is where the chromosomes loosen to form chromatins.
Chromosomes form during cell division, specifically during the process of mitosis. During mitosis, the chromosomes condense and line up before being separated into two daughter cells.
Chromosomes are located inside the nucleus of each cell in our body. They contain our genetic material, organized into genes that provide instructions for our body's development, function, and growth. Humans typically have 23 pairs of chromosomes, totaling 46 in each cell.
