Explanation:

Histones are basic proteins, and their positive charges allow them to associate with DNA, which is negatively charged. Some histones function as spools for the thread-like DNA to wrap around. Under the microscope in its extended form, chromatin looks like beads on a string.

Answer:

DEFINITION:-

Histones are a family of basic proteins that associate with DNA in the nucleus and help condense it into chromatin.

FUNCTION:-

Nuclear DNA does not appear in free linear strands; it is highly condensed and wrapped around histones in order to fit inside of the nucleus and take part in the formation of chromosomes.
