Solution

Chromatin:

  1. Thread-like stained bodies present in the nucleus of eukaryotes are called chromatin.
  2. They are complexes of DNA and protein.
  3. Chromatin is condensed to form chromosomes.
  4. Repeating units of chromatin form nucleosomes.
  5. Further, supercoiling leads to the formation of the chromatin fiber and then chromatid.
