Holocentric chromosomes are chromosomes where the centromere extends along the entire length of the chromosome instead of being localized to a single point. This distribution allows for more equal distribution of genetic material during cell division. Organisms with holocentric chromosomes include certain plants, invertebrates, and nematodes.

How do autosomal chromosomes different from sex chromosomes?
autosomal chromosomes carry diverse info sex chromosomes determine an individual's sex ---- ok, that is some other dude's answer, now here is mine: the autosomal is all the chromosomes, except for the sex chromosomes. so, in a sense, the autosomal has nothing to do with the sex chromosomes. sex chromosomes determine the offspring's sex, as the guy above said it. autosomal is simply all of the other chromosomes ----- For A+ the answer is "Autosomal chromosomes carry diverse information; sex chromosomes determine an individual's sex."
