Question
how is dna organized into chromosomes starting with the monomer of dna?chromatins - nucleotides - dna histone complexes (nucleosomes) - gene(dna strand) -nucleotides - genes(dna strand) - chromatin - dna histone complexes (nucleosomes)-nucleotides - gene (dna strand) - dna histone complexes (nucleosomes) - chromatin -genes(dna strand) - chromatin; nucleotides - dna histone complexes - chromosomesquestion 2what is the importance of dna being wrapped around histones?dna is a long strand that will only fit within the cell wall if it is wrapped around histones.dna is a long strand that will only fit within the nucleus if it is wrapped around histones.dna is a short strand that will only fit within the chloroplast if it is wrapped around histones.
- For DNA organization: Nucleotides are the monomers of DNA. They link to form DNA strands, which make up genes. DNA wraps around histone proteins to form nucleosomes (DNA-histone complexes). These nucleosomes fold and condense into chromatin, which further compacts into chromosomes.
- For histone wrapping: DNA is an extremely long molecule; wrapping around histones compacts it significantly, allowing it to fit inside the cell nucleus (not cell wall or chloroplast, as those are incorrect locations for nuclear DNA storage).
