Question
What is a chromosome? What is the inter-relationship among chromosomes, DNA and gene?
Answer
A chromosome is a thread-like structure in cells that carries genetic information in the form of DNA.
DNA is the molecule inside chromosomes that encodes hereditary data. Genes are specific segments of DNA that determine traits. Chromosomes contain DNA, and DNA holds genes, forming an interdependent relationship crucial for heredity and the functioning of living organisms.
