Don't know?

What is a nucleotide (nt)? nitrogenous base (adenine, cytosine, guanine or thymine)

What are histones? DNA is very compact because double strands twist around proteins → "double helix" supercoiled looped structure called chromatin

What are telomeres? segments of repeated nt sequences located at ends of chromosomes to prevent the DNA from unraveling and prevent chromosomes from attaching to each other during replication and cell division processes

What is a gene? segment of DNA nucleotides that carries information for synthesis of a specific protein
