Chromosomes are thread-like structures, found in the nuclei of both plant and animal cells, responsible for carrying genetic information.
- The chromosomes are made up of protein and 1 molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
- The chromosomes are responsible for passing genetic information from parents to offspring. Due to this information, children are unique in their own way while carrying genetic traits from their parents.
- The structure of chromosomes is such that the DNA remains tightly wrapped within the protein. This is important as the DNA must be preserved during the process of cell division which causes growth in living beings.
