Question

What is chromatin Material

Answer 1

Chromatin is the loose dense network of uncoiled chromosomes present in the nucleus of the cell. This is clearly visible in the interphase during cell division. It contains DNA, RNA and proteins. The proteins which are associated with DNA can be histone proteins and non-histone proteins. During cell division chromatin condenses and forms coils which are densely packed to form rod like structures called as chromosomes.

Answer 2

Chromatin is a mass of genetic material composed of DNA and proteins that condenses to form chromosomes during eukaryotic cell division. Chromatin is located in the nucleus of our cells.

Chromatin = DNA + Histone
