Chromosomes  are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made up of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

The unique structure of chromosomes  keeps DNA tightly wrapped around spool- like proteins, called histones. Without this kind of packaging, DNA molecules would be too long to fit inside the cells. 

 DNA molecules in a single human cell  if unwound from their histones  and placed end to end, they would measure 6 feet in length.

Chromosomes  play a  key part in ensuring that DNA is accurately copied and distributed to new daughter cells as the parent cell divides to form new cells.

Vitamin C is required to produce the collagen present in the extracellular matrix.

<h2>Vitamin C</h2>

Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is a vitamin that dissolves in water and can be found in citrus and vegetables. Vitamin C is key to preventing and treating scurvy, which is a disease that occurs from Vitamin C deficiency (most of the time due to malnutrition or severe alcoholism); the first symptoms of scurvy are weakness and fatigue, but if it does not get treated properly, it can progress to anemia, hemorrhage, periodontitis, changes in personality, and finally death.

Vitamin C is a necessary element for tissue healing, collagen synthesis, and neurotransmitter enzymatic production. It is vital for immune system function and is necessary for the functioning of numerous enzymes. It has antioxidant properties as well.
