Question

why does dna need to be tightly wound up in cells? for proteins to start replicating for rnas to start transcription so it can clone itself easily to fit inside the cell

Explanation:

DNA is a very long molecule. Cells are small. Winding DNA tightly allows it to fit within the limited - space of a cell. Protein replication, RNA transcription, and DNA cloning require the unwinding of DNA in specific regions, not the tight - winding.

Answer:

to fit inside the cell
