A physical carriers of genetic materials.

B composed of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones.

C a discrete unit of hereditary information consisting of a specific nucleotide sequence in DNA.

D a double-stranded nucleic acid composed of two long, polymeric chains of deoxyribose-containing nucleotides.

A the same as genes.

B alternative forms of a gene.

C located on the centromere.

D located on non-homologous chromosomes.

A identical in the information they carry and attached to each other at the centromere to form the chromosome.

B tightly condensed structures which carry genetic materials and are composed of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones.
