Where is chromatin in a plant cell?

Answer 1

Chromatin is the complex combination of DNA and protein that makes up chromosomes. The functions of chromatin are to package DNA into a small volume to fit in the cell, to strengthen the DNA to allow mitosis and meiosis, and to serve as a mechanism to control DNA expression and replication. Chromatin contains genetic material - instructions to direct cell functions.

Answer 2

The primary functions of chromatin are 1) to package DNA into smaller volume to fit into the cell

2) to reinforce DNA macromolecule to allow mitosis 3) to prevent DNA damage 4) to control gene expression and DNA replication. These were the various functions of DNA.

Answer 3

Chromosomes carry the encoded genetic information of the plant on them.

They are responsible for regulating metabolic processes within the cell (and plant) as well as cell division and the replication of the plant through sexual reproduction (formation of sex cells through meiosis) and vegetative reproduction (through mitosis).

Answer 4

Granular material visible within the nucleus; consists of DNA tightly coiled around proteins.

The "structure" to Cells.

Answer 5

in eukaryote cells the DNA is very tightly packed to form strands of chromatin in the nucleus. in turn, the chromatin condenses (i.e. comes together) to form 'X' shaped chromosomes.

Answer 6

Chromatin contains the instructions for directing the cell's functions and is the part of the cell cycle (mitosis) used to reproduce cells.

Answer 7

yes, in its nucleus.
