Q

the material of which the chromosomes of organisms other than bacteria are composed. It consists of protein, RNA, and DNA

A

chromatin

18
Q

a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes

Q

What is centromere and its function?
The centromere is the region which separates a chromatid into two arms. It is the site of the duplicated chromosome around which the kinetochore is present to attach to the microtubules of the spindle fibres

A

centromeres
