Question

label the diagram. diagram of dna, nucleosome, chromatin fiber, chromosome, nucleus, and gene with labels to be matched

Explanation:

1. The topmost segment is a section of DNA that codes for a trait, this is a gene.
2. The coiled structure made of DNA wrapped around histone proteins is a nucleosome (already placed correctly).
3. The fiber formed by stacked nucleosomes is the chromatin fiber.
4. The condensed, rod-shaped structure made of tightly packed chromatin is a chromosome.
5. The organelle that contains the chromosomes (the large, outlined structure in the cell) is the nucleus.

Answer:

• Top empty box: gene
• Middle empty box (pointing to stacked nucleosome fiber): chromatin fiber
• Bottom empty box (pointing to condensed rod): chromosome
• Bottom-left empty box (pointing to cell organelle): nucleus
