Solution
The correct option is A Chromosome
The nucleolus is a small, dense and spherical structure present in the nucleus of the cell that is visible during the interphase of the cell division under the microscope.
This region is dense due to the presence of proteins, DNA and RNA which are formed from specific chromosomal regions called nucleolar organizing regions.
Chromosomes are a thread-like structure which contains DNA and proteins that are found in the nucleus of most living cells and they carry the genetic information in the form of genes.
