Which two statements describe a chromosome? consists of DNA and protein molecules coiled into a definite shape copies DNA for mitosis found in the vacuole of prokaryotic cells found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells synthesized in nucleus and then leaves to carry out functions

Answer :

Answer:

consists of DNA and protein molecules coiled into a definite shape

synthesized in nucleus and then leaves to carry out functions

Explanation:

chromosome is a threadlike structure, usually located in the nucleus of cells whose genetic material are in the form of a linear sequence of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

Chromosomes contain the DNA. In prokaryotes where there is no membrane bound nucleus, the chromosome represents circular DNA containing the entire genome.

In eukaryotes cell with a nucleus, chromosomes are complex in structure. chromosomes helps to package the extremely long DNA sequence. Dna that are not packaged by chromosome could be as long as 3 inches this makes it visible to the naked eye.
