Place the following terms in the correct order from SMALLEST to LARGEST:

Nucleosome, Supercoil, Coil, chromosome and DNA double helix

Respuesta :

DNA, nucleosome, coils, supercoils, chromosome.

The correct order form SMALLEST to LARGEST is DNA double helix > Nucleosome > Coil > Supercoil > Chromosome.

  • DNA is a double helix molecule composed of two long chains of nucleotides linked by hydrogen bonding.

  • DNA associates with histone proteins to form nucleosomes, which are the basic unit of chromatin.

  • The chromatin is coiled and then supercoiled to be packaged into the cell nucleus and thus forms higher order organization structures.

  • Finally, chromosomes represent chromatin in its highest state of condensation.

In conclusion, the correct order form SMALLEST to LARGEST is DNA double helix > Nucleosome > Coil > Supercoil > Chromosome.
