umm is 100% correct thanks

yep 100%
thanks

Umm is correct 100% :)

@Umm is correct. 100%

thanks Umm is correct!

100% thanks!

5 is Chromatin

ummmmmmmmmmmm is correct I guess lol

ummm is correct still

#5 is now which statement correctly describes the structure of a codon
the answer is A codon is a sequence of nucleotides

#5. Creation of a shadow picture of DNA structure

thanks umm

if ur last question is
Chromosomes in eukaryotes are made of DNA wrapped around proteins. What is the combination of DNA and protein called?
the answer is NUCLEOSOMES

yupyup thanks guys

thanks @sillylittlegoose
