Chromatin:

A section of DNA in a eukaryotic chromosome known as an active chromatin sequence (ACS)
It is exposed as a result of histone modifications like acetylation, which allows transcription factors to bind to the exposed DNA.
A form of chromatin that is sparsely packed, enriched in genes, and frequently engaged in transcription is called euchromatin.
Euchromatin is another name for active chromatin.
