If you mean as a whole, most chromosomes resemble the shape of the letter X. There may be a sex chromosome, and it may resemble the letter V in males of the species, though in that case, it is called a Y-Chromosome. During the anaphase of mitosis, they would be L-shaped.If you mean in terms of the shape of the genetic material, then chromosomes have a double-helix shape.
Licorice twists are a type of candy that often resemble a strand of DNA due to their twisted shape and appearance.
There are 1000 bases of DNA in a 1 kilobase fragment.
Genetic engineering
Semidiscontinuous DNA is a lagging strand synthesis. It is a short fragment in the structure of double helix.

The longest fragment of DNA in humans is a gene called dystrophin, which is found on the X chromosome and spans about 2.4 million base pairs. Additionally, the mitochondrial genome is also a long fragment of DNA, totaling about 16,500 base pairs.
DNA
An Okazaki fragment is a short, newly synthesized DNA fragment that is formed on the lagging strand during DNA replication. It is composed of a short RNA primer at the 5' end and DNA nucleotides that extend toward the replication fork.
Genetic engineering
"Vector" is an agent that can carry a DNA fragment into a host cell. If it is used for reproducing the DNA fragment, it is called a "cloning vector". If it is used for expressing certain gene in the DNA fragment, it is called an "expression vector".
DNA
They resemble their parents due to chromosomes which give them inheritance of their parent's DNA and genes
they are the smallest.
