Structure of chromosome: A typical chromosome consists of two chromatids joined together at the centromere also known as primary constriction. Primary constriction consists of a disk shape plate called the kinetochore. During cell division, spindle fibers get attached to the kinetochore.. The discoveries laid the foundation for understanding the role of chromosomes in genetics. Structure of Chromosome. The chromosome structure consists of the following parts: Chromatid: A chromatid is one of the two identical copies of DNA that form a replicated chromosome. Chromatids are connected at the centromere until they separate during.

Structure: A chromosome has generally 8 parts; Centromere or primary constriction or kinetochore, chromatids, chromatin, secondary constriction, telomere, chromomere, chromonema, and matrix. Centromere or Kinetochore: It is the primary constriction at the center to which the chromatids or spindle fibers are attached. Its function is to enable.. ADVERTISEMENTS: In this article we will discuss about the structure of chromosomes with the help of suitable diagram. Chromosome is present as individual bodies in the interphase as well as in the mitosis. The predominant component in the chromosome is DNA molecule. The genes are located in chromosome of the nucleus and can be called […]
