chromosome

A chromosome is a body located within the cell nucleus of both plant and animal cells (normally 46 in humans) Each chromosome is composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and specialized protein molecules, which convey genetic information

chromosome

a threadlike body in the cell nucleus that carries the genes in a linear order

chromosome

A chromosome is a part of a cell in an animal or plant. It contains genes which determine what characteristics the animal or plant will have. Each cell of our bodies contains 46 chromosomes. a part of every living cell that is shaped like a thread and contains the genes that control the size, shape etc that a plant or animal has (chroma ( CHROMATIC) + soma ; because chromosomes easily take up coloring substances). Microscopic, threadlike part of a cell that carries hereditary information in the form of genes. The structure and location of chromosomes differentiate prokaryotic cells from eukaryotic cells (see prokaryote, eukaryote). Every species has a characteristic number of chromosomes; humans have 23 pairs (22 pairs of autosomal, or nonsex, chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes). Human chromosomes consist primarily of DNA. During cell division (see meiosis, mitosis), chromosomes are distributed evenly among daughter cells. In sexually reproducing organisms, the number of chromosomes in somatic (nonsex) cells is diploid, while gametes or sex cells (egg and sperm) produced by meiosis are haploid (see ploidy). Fertilization restores the diploid set of chromosomes in the zygote

chromosome

a structure in the nucleus of cells which contains genes

chromosome

One of the threadlike "packages" of genes in the nucleus of a cell A chromosome is mainly composed of DNA Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes) Each parent contributes one chromosome to each child, so children get half of their chromosomes from their mothers and half from their father

chromosome

The location of hereditary (genetic) material within a cell Genes are found arranged in a linear sequence along chromosomes Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes One of each pair is inherited from the mother and the other from the father

chromosome

Structures made up of DNA wrapped with protein Each cell in the body contains 23 pairs (46) of chromosomes One chromosome in each pair comes from the mother and one from the father (Egg and sperm cells have only 23 chromosomes each) Chromosomes are numbered 1-22, with the last pair being the sex chromosomes: XX for a female and XY for a male Each chromosome contains over 1,000 genes

chromosome

-A structure of DNA and protein found in the cell nucleus Each chromosome contains hundreds or thousands of the genes that form our hereditary blueprint Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes (each parent contributes one chromosome in each pair), containing a total of 50,000 to 100,000 genes

chromosome

chromosome

Chromosome refers to the structure in the cell composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins called Histones At SGD, if a locus has been physically mapped, the chromosomal coordinates will appear under the Sequence Coordinates category with a link to the ORF Map, on the Locus page The Roman numeral to the right indicates the chromosome to which the locus maps There are 16 chromosomes in S cerevisiae The Genomic View is a graphic representation of the entire yeast genome that allows you to display a chromosomal features map, physical map, or combined physical and genetic map
