the readily stainable substance of a cell nucleus consisting of DNA and RNA and various proteins; during mitotic division the chromatin condenses into chromosomes
a complex of DNA, RNA and proteins within the cell nucleus out of which chromosomes condense during cell division
Chromatin is a fine mass of thin fibers The fibers are long strings pf DNA Chromatin is not visible in a cell until a cell divides
The network of chromosomes, histones, and other proteins found in the eukaryotic nucleus during interphase The euchromatin corresponds to regions in which the chromosomes are dispersed, and the heterochromatin to the regions in which chromosomes are cond
The piece of DNA-protein complex that is studied and analyzed Each chromatin fragment reflects the general features of chromosomes but not the specifics of any individual chromosome
The deeply staining substance of the nucleus and chromosomes of cells, now supposed to be the physical basis of inheritance, and generally regarded as the same substance as the hypothetical idioplasm or germ plasm
