Chromosomes make up the genetic material of an organism, carrying essential information in the form of genes. Genes on chromosomes determine the traits and characteristics of an individual through the instructions they provide for protein synthesis and other cellular functions.

How many Chromosomes make up a human body?
46 chromosomes but 23 pairs
What is a stain used to make chromosomes visable called?
which stain is used to colour chromosomes
Are chromosomes genes or are genes chromosomes?
Genes are stretches of DNA that contain code to make proteins. Chromosomes are made up of numerous Genes.
When the chromosomes make an exact copy of themselves what are they then called?
When chromosomes make an exact copy of themselves, they are called sister chromatids. Sister chromatids are identical copies of a chromosome that are held together by a structure called the centromere.
What do genes joined together make?
Genes joined together make up a chromosome. Chromosomes contain the genetic material that determines an individual's traits and characteristics.
Are homologous chromosomes different from human lungs?
No they are not. Chromosomes [homologous or (occasionally) not] make Lungs. The Nuclei of Lung Cells also make Chromosomes.
How many chromosomes are needed to make a human?
46 chromosomes are needed to create a human
How many Chromosomes make up a human body?
46 chromosomes but 23 pairs
Are homologous chromosomes found in diploid?
Yes, the chromosomes double/make a copy of themselves.
What is a stain used to make chromosomes visable called?

Are chromosomes genes or are genes chromosomes?
Genes are stretches of DNA that contain code to make proteins. Chromosomes are made up of numerous Genes.
What are qualities of genes?
Genes are organized chromosomes. Chromosomes are what make the organism what it is. It is usually called DNA.
How many chromosomes does meiosis make?
12;;
When the chromosomes make an exact copy of themselves what are they then called?
When chromosomes make an exact copy of themselves, they are called sister chromatids. Sister chromatids are identical copies of a chromosome that are held together by a structure called the centromere.
How do scientists make a karyotype?
Scientists make a karyotype by first collecting cells, typically from blood or amniotic fluid. These cells are then cultured and stained to visualize the chromosomes. The chromosomes are then arranged and photographed to create a karyotype, which shows the number, size, and shape of chromosomes in an individual.
Do chromosomes make copies of themselves?
Yes, chromosomes make copies of themselves through a process called DNA replication. During cell division, each chromosome is duplicated to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical set of genetic material.
When are chromosomes haploid?
Chromosomes are haploid in sexual reproduction, because the male and female haploids combine to make a diploid.
