A chromosome is best described as a **molecule with part or all the genetic material of an organism**. Chromosomes are composed of DNA and proteins, and they carry the genetic information necessary for the growth, development, and functioning of an organism. They are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and are typically visible as distinct structures during cell division.
